Downloader.CashToolbar Spyware/Adware Definition


Name: Downloader.CashToolbar
Category: Trojan Downloader
Alias: Downloader-MY
Advice: Remove
Risk: High Risk High risk threats typically are remotely exploitable vulnerabilities, which can lead to system compromise. Successful exploitation does not normally require any interaction. May open up communication ports, use polymorphic tactics, stealth installations, and/or anti-spy counter measures. May use a security flaw in the operating system to gain access to your computer.
Description:

This detection is for a downloading trojan that serves only to download and execute a remote file.

Once executed, it installs itself on the victim machine using deceptive file and folder names:

c:WINNTsystem32driverscd_load.exe
c:WINNTsystem32inetsrvMSCStat.exe

The following Registry hooks are added:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRun "CashToolbar" = C:WINNTsystem32inetsrvMSCStat.exe
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRun "ClickTheButton" = C:WINNTsystem32driverscd_load.exe

After a delay, the following fake error message is displayed:

"Windows Error: Windows has detected spyware, click OK to remove."

Upon clicking OK, the trojan attempts to download remote files.
