Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf
Posted: February 28, 2011
Threat Metric
The following fields listed on the Threat Meter containing a specific value, are explained in detail below:
Threat Level: The threat level scale goes from 1 to 10 where 10 is the highest level of severity and 1 is the lowest level of severity. Each specific level is relative to the threat's consistent assessed behaviors collected from SpyHunter's risk assessment model.
Detection Count: The collective number of confirmed and suspected cases of a particular malware threat. The detection count is calculated from infected PCs retrieved from diagnostic and scan log reports generated by SpyHunter.
Volume Count: Similar to the detection count, the Volume Count is specifically based on the number of confirmed and suspected threats infecting systems on a daily basis. High volume counts usually represent a popular threat but may or may not have infected a large number of systems. High detection count threats could lay dormant and have a low volume count. Criteria for Volume Count is relative to a daily detection count.
Trend Path: The Trend Path, utilizing an up arrow, down arrow or equal symbol, represents the level of recent movement of a particular threat. Up arrows represent an increase, down arrows represent a decline and the equal symbol represent no change to a threat's recent movement.
% Impact (Last 7 Days): This demonstrates a 7-day period change in the frequency of a malware threat infecting PCs. The percentage impact correlates directly to the current Trend Path to determine a rise or decline in the percentage.

As per its name, Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf is a Trojan infection that drops other malware onto your computer. Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf will usually infect your computer through dishonest means and may often be bundled with other kinds of malware automatically. Other dangers offered by Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf include network-based propagation, a disabled firewall or other security, browser hijacking, unwanted additions to your registry and potential access by remote attackers. This high security risk shouldn't be underestimated; deleting Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf too slowly can cause permanent damage to your system or result in confidential information being leaked to criminals.
Vulnerabilities that Can Cause Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf to Creep onto Your Computer
One significant danger with Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf infections are their high probability of using local networks to spread. Not interacting with network-shared files that haven't been scanned and verified to be safe will reduce chances of infection. Beyond that, generally avoiding malicious websites and .exe files from risky sources will usually be adequate to defend your computer against Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf. Poor security settings, particularly on your browser, may let Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf infect you through website code, and a lack of updated security software will allow the Trojan generally easier access.
Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf may be dropped by other forms of malware, particularly by other Trojans. Given that Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf itself can drop malware, this scenario can easily escalate out of control and make full deletion of all threats very difficult.
Dulling Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf's Claws
Recognizing the Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf threat first requires that you be aware of its background-running existence; Trojans like this one will always create startup registry entries to avoid detection while running automatically. This can usually be noticed in Task Manager, provided Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf hasn't disabled the program. Trojans often name themselves after already-existing benevolent processes to hide; you should be suspicious of any 'extra' processes you see.
Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf can cause the following problems, but may have greater functionality as well:
- Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf will disable your security to enable its other functions. Your firewall is particularly likely to fall victim to Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf's attacks, as are any security software you have running.
- The unauthorized download and installation is almost inevitable with Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf, as is the case with most Trojans. Other malware can be detected by strange processes and files, as well as by unusual system behavior such as frightening desktop alerts or malicious links embedded in browser content.
- Strange browser behavior can also occur, as Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf has been reported to hijack browsers. This may be used along with faked warnings or advertising to keep the user off of security sites, or simply to push the user into a dangerous site.
- Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf may also enable remote attackers to influence the infected computer. Actions taken by remote attackers can be as mild and subtle as spying on private information or as blatant as a wholesale grab for interface control.
No matter what the actions taken by any one Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf infection, its presence is always a heavy danger to any computer. Deleting Trojan.Win32.Powp.jmf should be a priority for anyone dealing with this threat and is best handled through anti-malware programs designed to take Trojans out mercilessly.
