Eclipse This trojan is pretty hard to remove but it isn't impossible . It has your average trojan features and is often used because its not readily picked up by virus scanners .
Removal : Open regedit ( click start , run and type regedit ) Follow the following path HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\ Look for the key that says : bybt = "c:\windows\system\eclipse2000.exe" Now go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices Look on the right hand side for the key: cksys = "c:\windows\system\ could be anything .exe" Please NOTE what the filename is here, as it could be anything. You will need to know the name to delete later. Right click on cksys, and choose delete. Next, close HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, and follow the path: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\ At the end, click on 'Run' once, and the right hand panel should change. Look on the right hand side for the key: ewgiops = "c:\windows\system\eclipse2000.exe" Right click on ewgiops, and choose delete. Close regedit and reboot your PC. Do go away yet, your only half done. After you reboot, you still need to delete the trojan program itself. The trojan is at C:\WINDOWS\System\eclipse2000.exe and in C:\windows\system\ under the filename you noted from above. They can be deleted through Windows Explorer, or simply by going into My Computer, C:, and Windows. Once you find the file, right click on it and choose Delete. Then empty your recycling bin.
