It lives in user temp, internet temp, windows temp, all users appdata, system32, recycle bin, system dir, it's own directory under system dir, windows restore, the Java applets store, HCCR\exefile, HCLM\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\Winlogon, and I've seen as many as 32 separate entries in the Tasks list all set to reinfect the system, on a schedule. None of that includes the rootkits that they've pushed up, after the system was infected.

Well all those ones I left behind. going back around that year and a half.. they still haven't been re-infected.. I would know about it too because they're on managed services plans so we know about everything..

Edit - Yes I check all of those folders and reg keys too.. how slow do you work? You remind me of my tier 1 tech.. Only reason I even see these is because he can't get it. lol
