F-Secure Virus Descriptions : Poler.A

[Summary]



NAME:Poler.A
ALIAS:Adware.Aurora, Trojan.Win32.Poler.a, Poler

Summary

Poler is a very intrusive adware that F-Secure Anti-Virus detects as a trojan because of its features.

When run, the trojan hiddenly installs itself to system by copying its file with a random name to Windows System folder and by creating s startup key for that file in Windows Registry. On attempt to terminate its process, the trojan re-installs itself to system with a different name and changes the startup key in the Registry accordingly.
