Troj/PDFEx-ET is a malicious Trojan which is involved in a spammed-out malware attack. The bogus email that carries Troj/PDFEx-ET is supposedly delivered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and poses as an account suspension report. Troj/PDFEx-ET can come in a form of the malicious PDF files. Troj/PDFEx-ET included in the fraudulent email can infect PCs even if the computer user doesn't open the attachment. The affected computer user will not even be alerted about that. The only word that will occur is 'loading'. The bogus email automatically downloads Troj/PDFEx-ET into the compromised PC system once the computer user clicks to open it. If your PC has been infected with Troj/PDFEx-ET, delete it immediately after detection.
