I'm working on a pC that has this malware. It's one of those programs that pop up a fake antivirus dialog and try to scare the user into either installing something, or buying something that they shouldn't. Has anyone seen this particular variant before? Nod32 isn't detecting it at all. I've seen similar trojans in the past, and I was able to remove those using a little utility called SmitfraudFix.exe; However, SmitfraudFix isn't detecting this particular worm. The issue is further complicated by the fact that this machine is offsite, and I'm trying to talk a user through fixing this over the phone. I therefore really want to stay away from solutions that require hand editing the registry if at all possible.
