TrojanDropper:Win32/Binuflix.A is a severe infection that may cause various problems to your PC. This threat is a Trojan dropper, which means that it may install additional cyber threats according to the instructions sent by its operators. When your machine gets infected with TrojanDropper:Win32/Binuflix.A, it may mark the beginning of a process that resembles the 'domino effect.' Every new Trojan may contribute to the automatic and hidden loading of additional threats. As a consequence, the performance of your PC may suffer greatly. An even more worrying fact is that your files and information may be put at risk of being stolen. The potentially adverse consequences are the reason you should take measures to prevent the installation of TrojanDropper:Win32/Binuflix.A. As many other Trojans, this one relies primarily on drive-by downloads to enter. It may be introduced to your system in the form of bogus media/flash player updates. You also may run the executable file of the threat in case you open email attachments by unknown senders. After it sneaks in successfully, TrojanDropper:Win32/Binuflix.A creates a few files and modifies certain registry entries. You should check your %APPDATA% and %TEMP% directories for the presence of svchost.exe, cppicvk.exe or lwjrynjuoghd.dat. If you locate any of these files, then this high-level parasite is certainly active. The modifications of registry subkeys take place to launch TrojanDropper:Win32/Binuflix.A on system startup. Once the threat finishes the preparatory phase, it will try to connect your PC to remote hosts like ebuboy.hopto.org. In most cases, it uses port 3360 for the task. The people in command of TrojanDropper:Win32/Binuflix.A may use this host to upload any cyber threat to your PC. If you have the slightest suspicion that you may have loaded the parasite accidentally, you should proceed with a full system scan.
