Comment:

I have in System32 lrzq.exe and lrzq.DAT file.

I have just removed the bla.exe trojan and when looking in task manager I noticed the lrqz.exe was running, I have never noticed it before.

I have searched on Google and found nothing, and was wondering if anyone can shed some light on this for me.


Thanks in advance

Hey there ...

1 Download the following four items...

McAfee Stinger
http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger/

Trend Sysclean Package
http://www.trendmicro.com/download/dcs.asp

Latest Trend Pattern File.
http://www.trendmicro.com/download/pattern.asp

Adaware SE (free personal version v1.05)
http://www.lavasoftusa.com/

Create a directory.
On drive "C:\"
(e.g., "c:\New Folder")
or the desktop
(e.g., "C:\Documents and Settings\lipman\Desktop\New Folder")

Download SYSCLEAN.COM and place it in that directory.
Dowload the Trend Pattern File by obtaining the ZIP file.
For example; lpt265.zip

Extract the contents of the ZIP file and place the contents in the same directory as
SYSCLEAN.COM
2) Update Adaware with the latest definitions.
3) If you are using WinME or WinXP, disable System Restore
http://vil.nai.com/vil/SystemHelpDocs/DisableSysRestore.htm
4) Reboot your PC into Safe Mode
5) Using Trend Sysclean, Stinger and Adaware, perform a Full Scan of your
platform and clean/delete any infectors/parasites found.
(a few cycles may be needed)
6) Restart your PC and perform a "final" Full Scan of your platform using the three
utilities; Trend Sysclean, Stinger and Adaware
7) If you are using WinME or WinXP, Re-enable System Restore and re-apply any
System Restore preferences, (e.g. HD space to use suggested 400 ~ 600MB),
8) Reboot your PC.
9) If you are using WinME or WinXP, create a new Restore point

Hi... Try using windows explorer, find the lrzq.exe file, right click on it,
click on properties,look at the "general" "version" and
compatability" tabs. IF they are listed.

look on the version tab for the manufacturer of the file, IF the info
is there it may give you a clue as to the program or program maker.

Hi

Thanks for the replies

I checked on the properties tab and all it gives me is the created info.

The worry of this is its the same date as i was hit by a trojan.

I have put it in the recycle bin and I'll see how it goes for a few days

I'll post back with any info and results after I send it into cyber space once and for all.

Thanks again
Alan56
