Microgaming Malware

codo

Hi All

Over the last couple of days my computer has become very slow. I ran an Ad Ware scan and it showed up microgaming regkey. I seem to have got rid of it now but has anyone come across this. I was wondering what kind of sites I would have got this from. Kids have been on the computer alot recently and wondered if it is one of the site they had been on and can avoid in future as I havent had many problems with malware before.

Thanks

If I were you I would also run posts 1 to 4 of this http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=133269

What was the regkey does adware still have the details?

Twopints

Microgaming is the underlying software for a large number of casino and poker sites - have you downloaded or used any of these?

codo

Dont think we have gone onto any casino or poker sites but will check with kids as they have been playing various games online.

Im afraid I have deleted the reg key details just know it said obj[0]=Regkey : .DEFAULT\software\microgaming. . I have done a file search for microgaming on the c drive and there are two files called microgaming.com showing up in the windows/applicationsdata/micromedia/flashplayers/macromediasupport dont know if that helps.

Thanks for the info.
