Tracking #15573647: winsystem.exe

Hi,

 

Just happened to stumble across this on my pc. Wasn't sure what to do about it at first, but it seems like it has been there for two weeks now, and has been running a process, by the same name. I have quarantined it manually, as I believe it may be a backdoor trojan.

 

Tracking #15573647

 

Have uploaded it to Symantec, just posting the tracking number here in hopes of getting a faster response, as I also uploaded something on about wednesday and haven't heard anything yet - however that one was compressed, so I know it wasn't running... this one on the other hand WAS running.

 

Any comments about this process would be good (like if anyone here also has it and knows it to be good:-) )- google'd it and uploaded it to VirusTotal, and it DOES look like it may be malicious - but you never know, it could just be something redundant from something I don't ever use. Not sure. MBAM and SAS don't recognise it as a virus. It has a 29% hit-rate on VTotal.

 

Thanks! :-)

 

Matt
