RE: port 6060

[arh <arh () Mustangsurvival com>]

PC Magazine recently ( Apr 03) reviewed several "Spyware-Detecting"
software packages (http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,4149,992435,00.asp) and
they found (as we had found earlier) that "Spybot - Search & Destroy" -- a
*free* download from http://spybot.safer-networking.de/ -- detects and
removes malware more effectively than PestPatrol.  PestPatrol's demo
software *may* detect -- but not remove -- malware, until you pay for their
license.  Good luck!

There is a possibility that some Trojan is there in your system. Follow
these steps.

1) Check running processes in Task Manager. Monitor anything suspicious.
Also check running services & stop unwanted services.

2) In firewall don't filter just incoming traffic. Do egress filtering
too.

3) Run complete virus scan of your system. Make sure virus definition
files are updated.

4) Go to www.PestPatrol.com. They offer a free version of PestPartol,
their product used to detect & remove pests (Trojans, worms etc)

I hope this would resolve your issue.

Hi.



My home pc is win2k sp4 with f-secure 5.4, distributed firewall 5.5.

Something is listening in port 6060, allso machine sends lots of spam.

My isp said that. Is there anything to do to detect what it is.

Nto-scanner did not find anything.



Thanks.
