W32.Jaydotto

Posted: March 5, 2008

W32.Jaydotto is a worm parasite that spreads by infecting removable devices found on your system. The characteristic that separates W32.Jaydotto from contemporary worm infections is that it spreads using old school techniques. Once in your system, W32.Jaydotto will search for all removable disk drives and copy both itself and autorun.inf file there. W32.Jaydotto will then encrypt itself so no file name that can be detected by OS is created. The way that W32.Jaydotto infects the computer enables it to remain hidden, as well as aggravates manual removal of this parasite extremely. To remove W32.Jaydotto from your computer once and for all, we strongly recommend using trusted anti-spyware applications instead of manual removal.
