New, undetected keylogger
I recently downloaded a program, that according to everyone else that downloaded it, is completly safe and has no bad stuff in it.Well it did. A keylogger, to be exact. It attached it to my profile, starting up every time i logged on, showing some bunch of random symbols likeFAILED TO START: _NB#Q(u5]mvUT0mWYU$024nv)*#QN%)#gr34B$6bAnd disableing my task manager, and put in some very strange things in a hidden folder under C:/Documents and Settings/*myacc*/Local Settings/Temp/Sys32Here are screenshots, i blacked out all the personal/identifyable stuff.http://yfrog.com/emstrange3pxApparently its called Masterkey Logger.1 person needs an answerI do too

Which Anti-Virus are you using ?Make sure it is update and run full system scan.If you are using Microsoft Anti-Malware such as Microsoft Security Essentials then submit sample to:https://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/Submission/Submit.aspxAnd you could contact support:https://support.microsoftsecurityessentials.com/For help to remove it.

I am using AVG free v9.0.862It's not a virus or Malware. This looks like it was made by someone who wasent very smart, (not that anyone who makes keyloggers arent) it goes against common sense to make something like that then make it so obvious.Also, I easily figured out how to remove it (actually, stop it from running)1. system restore to the previous day2. go back on, and delete the filedone. simple as that.Though i've never heard of this before, i looked it up on google and all i found was runescape stuff that i diddent have access to.

Keylogger consider part as Spytools and Anti-Spyware engine would detect it. Anyway, if that is the case, I still suggest to submit all samples to submission website that I mentions in my preview post for Microsoft Anti-Malware Team to Analyze and their Analyze would help to make Anti-Malware technology better.If you get ride of it that is fine , but knwoing send sample would help that it could be detectable by Anti-Spyware software.
