Problem with MSN.exe?

Title – MSN.exe

Description – MSN.exe is an active component of the Rbot PJ spyware worm. If this process runs on your PC when you first log on then you have more than likely been infected with the Rbot PJ spyware. Spreading through network connections with little or no security, the Rbot PJ worm has a potentially damaging payload to deliver.

Rbot PJ combines several different variants of spyware. It is a downloader, a backdoor, a keylogger,  and spyware. Removal is essential to protect the integrity of your computer system. Without removal it may steal personal information and prevent software from identifying and removing this and other threats.

Initially it will attempt to close security and antivirus applications down. This can prevent your security software from identifying and subsequently removing the application and associated processes and files. It acts as a backdoor into your system so hackers and other unauthorised third parties can gain access. As well as stealing personal information such as passwords and software keys the Rbot PJ worm will record keystrokes and may download further code from the Internet using an existing Internet connection.

Associated Errors – Antivirus and other security applications will not usually run when your system starts once you have been infected with this spyware. Unexplained access to your computer, software, and even website registrations and accounts may also be evident in some cases.

Recommended Solution – Manually scan your system using antivirus or antispyware software and take the recommended action with the file.exe process and other components of the Rbot PJ Worm.
