New virus?

[sniper297]

Here's a new one, working in TS2010 surveyor and it froze on me, after shutting it down and rebooting I got a rundll32 error about "oxajonaf". Googled that and came up empty, so I hunted it up in my startup config and disabled it;

Currently searching the hard drive for that name, I'll get to the registry next. Is this something generated by TS2010, or a new virus that hasn't made it to google yet? Windows XP Media Edition if that makes a difference.

Lots of viruses and advertising spyware and adware use randomly-generated names. Without a virus scanner or a sample of the binary, I can't tell you much about that one but unless it's a very old and amateurishly-written trojan, simply disabling it in startup or in the run registry keys probably isn't enough to get rid of it.

My PC was infected with the SystemTool virus and I used the free version of Malaware to remove it http://www.malwarebytes.org/

Another good tool I use a lot is Superantispyware. They have a standalone version that's very good also - some virii disable your .exe software.
