Re: Microsoft Update Loader msrtwd.exe

Recently discovered a trojan(? - possibly a virus)
called msrtwd.exe.
It's listed in the Registry as "Microsoft Update
Loader"

Does anyone know anything about this?   Google
doesnt offer much.

Where in the Registry did you find it?  Which key(s)? 
What about this makes you think it's a Trojan?  Did
you run fport/openports and find it listening on a
port?  Where does the Registry entry point to within
the file system?  Since the file is an .exe file, did
you check it for version information?

Since filenames are the easiest thing about a file to
change, is there any information other than simply the
name that you can provide?
