    Found stuff on my computer

    I have found these files on my computer, I know they are bad, but can anyone tell me what they do? and can I just delete them? I found them by accident, is there another place to look? Thanx, Dima.

    Well.... Where do I start.....

    Imagine a mechanic's toolbox..... All those tools..... You have as many here... It's a complete toolkit....

    It's impossible to say what they all do since all you can see there is the names and any file is easy to rename. nc.exe is there, that's NetCat probably - the self styled "Swiss Army Knife". There's a bunch of other stuff there too that may or may not be what they purport to be but whatever they are they aren't good.

    To be honest this box is so owned that your only safe recourse is to reformat and reinstall from scratch after backing up _only_ data files. Everything else must come from a trusted source.

    FireDaemon.exe lets you run programs as a service, NC.exe is NetCat and is useful for all sorts of stuff (like shoveling a shell) and there are quite a few other useful tools for a cracker there. Looks like someone has set up a backdoor and some tools on your box, maybe with a kit like Backdoor.IRC.Zcrew (http://securityresponse.symantec.com...c.zcrew.b.html ). I would recommend nuking and rebuilding your computer and changing all the passwords you normally use.

    Picking one off the entries at random. You seem to be infected with the Gaobot worm, for starters.

    So as Tiger Shark has suggested re-format and re-install is the best advice. It also allows remote access so a chang of all your passwords and login details to everything you do on line would be wise.

    Yeah... Stuff like that has to be the skiddie idea of hiding something's true intent.....

    "OK, if we call it ****.exe maybe they'll think it's some kind of virtual vibrator or something. They sure wouldn't think it was a backdoor or something......."

    The funny part is that I just typed it into a search as a fluke, I knew there was a problem with my computer and out of frastration thats what I typed inot the search f**k.exe and I guess it worked. Can anyone tell me how it could have gotten on my computer and how can I prevent this from happening again. Thanx.

    Run an up-to-date AV package, run a firewall, keep up on your Windows patches and be careful what you install on your box.

    Do you have a firewall?
    Do you apply all the updates when they come out?
    Do you have file and printer sharing enabled?
    etc. etc. etc.
