Help with unknown virus
There is a virus (possibly trojan) on my mum's laptop. The only thing that it appears to do is that when my mum is typing an email in Outlook Express it will randomly insert '1QA\' and 'zzzzzzzz' into the typing field. The laptop is running Windows ME.
- Searched here and found nothing.
- Searched at Symantec and found nothing.
- Searched at Mcafee and found nothing.
- Nothing dodgy (as far as I can tell) in the Run keys (Run, RunOnce etc.) in the registry.
- Got latest virus definitions for Norton AntiVirus 2002, but it does not detect anything.
I initially thought it was just a trojan a la Sub7, but when I searched Google it returned with a site where someone had experienced the exact same problem ('1QA\' and 'zzzzzzzz' being typed in). Unfortunately there was not further information on the site. Does anyone have any ideas as to what this could be, or what I might be able to do to get rid of it?
