I came about MagniPic by chance, and my scanner states that it is a trojan. I deleted the main file but couldnt find the others:
ReplyDelete%UserProfile%\
%UserProfile%\Application Data\
%UserProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\MagniPic
%AppData%\Local\[MagniPic].exe
I also can't find these:
HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\control panel present
HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\restrictions present
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer: NoActiveDesktop = 1
When I open my Registery Editor (Windows + R, and open regedit), I can only find HKEY but no HKLM... Any idea why?
Thx!
