Trojan Horse Maybe?

[Anthony Jimenez]

How do I get rid of something called SysReg.exe?
Whenever I try to access Internet Explorer, an error message appears:
"SysReg.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. Sorry for the
incovenience."
And then it closes and I cannot access IE.Please Help Me!

Do you have an updated functioning AV, if so, use it, and hopefully =
you'll be able to get things back up.

Actually, these days having sysreg.exe running on your system likely
means you have Spyware. It appears to get loaded by a new version of
the BTLink variant of Huntbar which started showing up around 5/20/03.
Sysreg.exe is not yet detected by SpyBot (not sure about Ad-Aware 6),
but Norton Anti-Virus will pick it up:
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/security.risk.html.
Symantec's removal instructions will do the trick, but do not mention
a number registry keys which should be deleted. A co-worker of mine is
working on more thorough removal instructions. I will post them soon.
