    Posted Feb 14, 2013 11:45 PM

    Hi,

     

    In one of the node, we are getting lot of W32.Rontokbro@mm virus detections. it has been found to take lot traffic. Ran many of the tools suggested by Symantec but the issue still persists. Can i create an exception for this known detection from the server level? The user is annoyed because the computer hangs because of the continuos detection of this threat. Please help.

     

    Regards,

    Anish

    Hi Ashish,

     

    The infected computer seems to be running with some application which is also shared by other users. The application is used internally and accessed by only 5-10 people from their computers. It is been found that as and when these users share their folders, they also get those virus detection. Please let me know how to add exceptions for application and what type of exception would be better in my case ?

     

    Regards,

    Anish.

    Hello,

    I would suggest you to check this Thread: https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/how-delete-0

    What version of SEP are you carrying?

    Checking it carefully, found this:

    Your Symptoms looks very similar to these as below:

    You run a scan multiple times and it continually finds threats previously quarantined in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\SRTSP\Quarantine. A full system scan will find the files and claim that it successfully quarantined the file but will be found my another full system scan in the same location.

    Cause: Unknown. It is suspected that the SRTSP is a middle point for the main quarantine typically located in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application data\Symantec Endpoint Protection\Quarantine 
     
    Solution:

    Disable the System Restore from the Machine.

    When trying to access C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\SRTSP\Quarantine you will probably get an access denied.

    1. Right click on the folder, go to Properties then Security.
    2. Add the user who is currently logged on with Full Control.
    3. Open command window (Start > Run > cmd).
    4. At command prompt, navigate to the directory (cd "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\SRTSP\Quarantine")
    5. Delete all files by typing the command del *.* and hit enter.
    6. Restore the default privileges by removing the user added with Full Control.
    7. Initiate a full system scan.

     

    Hope that helps!!

    Hi Anish,

    Kindly update us about your virus related problem?



  • 15.  RE: Lot of W32.Rontokbro@mm infection

    Posted Feb 18, 2013 03:08 AM

    Are you able to identify the source?

     

    I'm afraid the attack won't stop until you track the source and clean it all together...

    Hi,

     

    whenever a user in our network try to share some folders, the virus is found. Users have been told not to share folders. At the same time, the application currently running on the machine is planned to be put in a dedicated machine. Will have to perform few other stesp once the user is free. Thanks for your suggestions.

     

    Regards,

    Anish

    Hello,

    Are all the client machines installed with Latest and updated SEP client??

    Could you please make sure you have the machines run a Full scan on them.

    And when the users share a drive or a folder a strong password protection to be used.

    I would also recommend you to disable the AutoRun Feature via GPO.

    To find the Source of the Threat, it is advised to Enable the "Risk Tracer" feature from the SEPM.

    Risk Tracer -

    http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH102539

    How to use Risk Tracer to locate the source of a threat in Symantec Endpoint Protection

    http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH94526

     

    A few extra notes....

    • Risk Tracer relies upon the Windows File and Printer Sharing. If this is disabled (as per MS Article 199346, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/199346) Risk Tracer will not work.
    • Risk Tracer may be disabled in order to reduce SAV's performance impact on an overburdened computer.

    Hope that helps!!

    Hi,

     

    Is there any inbuilt option in windows 7 or XP with this password protection for shared folders?

    Hello,

    You cannot password protect individual folders in XP. You restrict access by assigning permissions to drives, folders and files.

    Check this Article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307874

    Whereas in Windows 7 you could turn on the password protected sharing, check this Article:

    Hope that helps!!
