Topic created on: January 27, 2010 17:26 CST by 0xff0xff .

im new to reversing code but i was able to with the help of google take a hidden exe named yahooautoupdater and decompile it back to its vb code im not into virus writing so im not positive if this is infact a virus heres a piece of of the code this references if it isnt a legit call for yahoo auto updater someone shoot me a pm and tell me what u think of this starnge program i can tell that it uses the zlib compression dll also taps some weird api calls including adding itself to the firewall impersonating a process hooking the kernel directly and another piece of info on this it was preloaded on a windows xp pro sp3 disc pirated my own fault but it crashes the os if i kill the process and every time i hook it with ida or something else it seems to delete itself i also looked at the calls it has enemies,proxies and zombie.getinfo and i googled that it appears to be a virus tecnique is this a new ddos variant it can read current user lanmanager info etc does yahoo update need these things to work or do we have a new virus on our hands?

those are the decompiled segments of code directly from the running exe

(and finally the API calls)

Can you upload the file somewhere? It would be alot easier to figure out if you could.
