NanoCore virus

Hi all,

It seems I have picked up a nasty virus.

I keep getting the attached prompt.

I looked into it and it seems NanoCore is a commercially available virus/RAT.

I have run Bitdefender and it picked up nothing. I ran Malwarebytes and that picked up two trojans which I deleted. However, this dubious prompt is still coming up.

Any help would be seriously appreciated.

Thanks.

Hello,

NanoCore is a remote assistance application similar to Team Viewer, the application itself is not a virus.

You should be able to see this application in your Control Panel with a option to uninstall it.

It appears to be a virus of some kind:

It doesn't exist in the programs list (control panel).

The dialog seems to be triggered by RegSvcs.exe in C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\

Hello,

I see, please generate a BDsys log and send it to bitsy@bitdefender.com with all the details.
