Hi.
The laptop of a client was displaying too many messages related with NetSky infection, and a "Microsoft Security Alert" providing info related with a computer infection, and try to open a web named safenavweb.com.
i check the laptop wih the latest mwav, under windows safe mode, without network and with the system restore disabled.
Mwav detect too many addware, trojans, and registry failtures, but when restart in normal mode, the message related with netsky continue appearing.
I search in the spyware forums, and found information related with a trojan Named SMITFRAUD, so i search and download a tool named SmitfraudFix.zip.
After to check the system with that tool, the problem was solved correctly.
Now the client are asking me why The latest MWAV version was fail. He use AV 9.0.721.1 in all the network, and need to know if this trojan are present in the LAN.
What can i do in that cases?
Thanks in advance
