hello everybody
the last scan of updated S&D found Virtumonde.sdn on c:\windows\system32\encapi32.dll that was an old file referring to Microsoft Encarta.
The result of the scan is attached.
Well I think it could be a false positive.
Please have a look

Live long and prosper
 
Thank you for reporting this false positive.
It will be fixed with the next detection update scheduled for Wednesday 2010-04-14.
Until then you can exclude further detection of ENCAPI32.dll if you right click it in the scan result and select to "exclude this detection from further searches".
 
thanks for confirming

Hi Yodama, :thanks:
thanks for Your official confirm, as I wasn't sure at 100% (it's a long time I don't use this old version of Ms Encarta).
Happy, however, to contribute to the correct developing of Spybot
Have a nice weekend

Live long and prosper
 
As far as I know, Virtumonde uses the file "encapi32.dll" as well, but filesize and MD5 are different. :)
 
filesize and MD5 are different

Hi, Matt
I knew about the use of ENCAPI32 by Virtumonde, so I attached the md5 and filesize information in text file. In the meanwhile I'm waiting to the update of wednsday and I'll try to scan the system again: surely I'll post any new.
Eventually I can attach the zipped ENCAPI32 itself if you need more investigation.
Have a good weekend

LIVE LONG AND PROSPER
 
new scan: no more false positive

Hello everybody,
its confirmed.
after a new scan with updated S&D files, Your software does not detect the encapi32.dll as Virtumonde anymore.
I can confirm that the problem is fixed.
Tnks for Your continuous work

Live long and prosper
