Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b

Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b is a backdoor Trojan that can shut down your PC's security, making it easier for remote attackers to compromise the machine. Trojans like Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b are also known to be able to download malware by themselves and can be the first stage in a multi-level infection involving keyloggers or rogue anti-virus software. Although there are few plain signs of a Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b infection, your PC is completely open to attack while this Trojan is on your hard drive. Use whatever methods are necessary to delete Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b, unless you like the idea of your computer being controlled by anonymous criminals!

Is Your Firewall Tougher than Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b?

Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b has only been verified as a threat since early 2011, and may be able to avoid detection by anti-malware programs that haven't acquired recent updates for their threat databases. Keeping your security software as updated as possible is one step you can take to defend yourself preemptively against Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b.

Systems that suffer infection by Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b will have security-related settings changed to allow for both remote access and additional downloads of other malicious software. Often, this can easily be seen by checking your firewall for deactivation or unrecognizable program exceptions. Even if you change your settings back, Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b will just degrade them again at the earliest opportunity.

Primary dangers associated with this reduced level of computer security include:

• Remote control of your PC by anonymous attackers. Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b can let unknown criminals take over your computer and force it to perform any number of self-damaging actions, particularly including illegal DDoS attacks. These attacks use up system resources and degrade overall performance as well as taking control of your computer straight out of your hands.
• Other malware downloads, either by Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b or by other malicious attackers. Such heavily reduced security puts your PC at risk of getting both related and unrelated malware onto your machine at a rapid pace. Even just visiting a dangerous website, or a website that hosts dangerous advertisement, can cause an insecure PC to be the victim of forced downloads.

Deconstructing Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b

The majority of PCs running Windows, including machines with Windows 7, are in danger of being infected by Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b. Having high security settings on both your browser and on your firewall and other system security applications will let you avoid most instances of unauthorized Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b downloads. Take care not to download suspicious files from sources like peer to peer networks and pirate software sites will also do a lot to keep Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b away from your PC.

Uninstalling Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b is something you should do only after verifying that the Trojan is no longer running. If Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b is still active when you try to remove it, the Trojan may be able to avoid or recover from your deletion efforts. Using proven anti-malware software to do this will result in a better possibility of successfully deleting Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b. Depending on the brand of software you use, Constructor.Win32.DDoS.b may also be detected by the name of Backdoor.Win32.DarkMoon.BE or Constructor/Ddos.38912.
