Troj_winfixer.es

This Trojan may be downloaded unknowingly by a user when visiting malicious Web sites.

This Trojan drops several component files, some of which are detected by Trend Micro as the following:
  • TROJ_AGENT.CCE
  • ADW_ERRORSAFE.H
  • TROJ_AGENT.CCD
  • ADW_WINFIXER.AB
This Trojan creates registry keys. It accesses Web sites to download a file.

This Trojan comes with an uninstall package. Uninstalling this Trojan compeletely removes all its dropped files and all its created registry keys and entries.

This Trojan poses as an application that can supposedly fix errors on an affected system. However, it requires the user to register and pay a certain fee before it can fix and clean the system.
