Hey Dan, haven't heard of that one. But it does sound strange. I bet many people on this list would like to get a ahold of that file. Also it would be a good idea to run it thru www.virustotal.com and some of the other online malware sites. Just in case it is a filename change..of a new common malware. ________________________________ From: full-disclosure-bounces () lists grok org uk [mailto:full-disclosure-bounces () lists grok org uk] On Behalf Of Dan Bambach Sent: Thursday, May 05, 2005 5:15 PM To: full-disclosure () lists grok org uk Subject: [Full-disclosure] wintcpmod.exe Hear of it? I noticed today that a program wintcpmod.exe, located in two places on my hard drive, windows\system and windows\system32 was attempting to access port 53. My firewall blocked it and sent an alert. I am on the road, so I have not had time to fully investigate this yet, but a Google search produced very little about this program. It sets a registry key for local machine "run", and can be seen on the process screen. It does not appear in the services list. I was able to kill it, but in my Google search, someone has claimed that they were unable to kill the process. I am running WinXP SPk2 fully patched, and Symantec AntiVirus, ZoneAlarmPro. Microsoft AntiSpyware does not report anything. Has anyone else seen this program? Dan Bambach Dan () dbambach net
