win32.yerivar.net Alert from Zone Alarm

[Guest Watchmaker]

I am just finishing a clean install on XP and I just got this alert. A

Google search shows several posts within the last two days on this and ZA sez

this is a nasty thing.

 

Anyone know what this is? Right now I have it in quarantine; Windows

Defender missed it.

 

Regards,

 

Dewey

The problem is that anti virus companies don't name the same infector using the same name.

The only real way to get information is to remove the file from quaratine, submit a sample

to Virus Total and then go to different anti virus libraries/encyclopedias and see if

there is a writeup for the malware in a company's library. Then you can get more detail

on "what" the infector is.

 

What is the fully qualified name and path to the file deemed to be infected wih

"win32.yerivar.net".
