I'd like to collect a sample of this file, please.

Please download the Suspicious File Packer http://www.safer-networking.org/files/sfp.zip

Unzip it to the desktop and run it.
Paste the following list of bad files into the Suspicious File Packer window:

C:\Program Files\mediacodec-v4.588.exe

Allow SFP to pack the files. This will generate a CAB archive on your desktop.
Please submit it to this site http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/subm....php?channel=4
Please include a link to this topic in the message.

Once you've done this, delete that file

C:\Program Files\mediacodec-v4.588.exe

with prejudice!

If you encounter any troubles following those instructions, don't worry about it, and just delete the file.

We'd better have you run one more online scan to look for remnants:

Establish an internet connection & perform an online scan using Internet Explorer at http://www.kaspersky.com/service?chapter=161739400

Answer Yes, when prompted to install an ActiveX component.

• The program will then begin downloading the latest definition files.
• Once the files have been downloaded click on NEXT
• Locate the Scan Settings button & configure to:
  • Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:
    • Extended
  • Scan Options:
    • Scan Archives
    • Scan Mail Bases
• Click OK & have it scan My Computer
• Once the scan is complete, it will display if your system has been infected. It does not provide an option to clean/disinfect. We only require a report from it.
• Click the Save as Text button to save the file to your desktop so that you may post it in your next reply

* Turn off the real time scanner of any existing antivirus program while performing the online scan
