Trojan.Festi is a Trojan that drops malicious files on to the affected machine. Once executed, Trojan.Festi downloads the certain kernel driver file. Then, Trojan.Festi creates the particular registry entry to register itself as a service so that it can run automatically every time you start Windows. After that, Trojan.Festi tries to contact the remote location named 'muduck.ru' in order to download and run more files on the infected PC. Remove Trojan.Festi immediately after detection by using a genuine security program.
