Title: Trojan.Java/Rowindal.A
Post by: pctech on Aug 10, 2010, 19:21:49
MSE has picked this up during a scan and removed it successfully it says but I cant find any info on it on Microsoft's or any of the major AV Vendors' sites.

I've joinded and asked on Wilders Security too but wondered if anyone here knew anything.

I am in the process of changing passwords on my bank and credit card accounts.

They are generally pretty good on Wilders.

Prevx has given my system a clean bill of health

Now debating whether to purchase a licence as it seems a lot quicker than MSE.

I saw your post come up at Wilders so did a Google search which throws up this from MS:

http://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/Definitions/WhatsNew.aspx?version=1.87.1626.0&Release=Released&Package=AM

If you look down that list at the last names after the Trojan etc they are in alphabetical order, yours is about half way down. Kudos to MSE  :thumb:
It would appear to be a Zero Day as MS do not give any info on it yet except severe.

I have been using Prevx for a long while, very quick to pick these things up as well.

I was just concerned as I do my banking on here and occasionally check my work e-mail.

Typing that just reminded me to log on and change my LAN password too.

None of my online system passwords or my card PINs are my DOB, the only thing that is the PIN on my mobile SIM.
