Type: Adware
Publisher: http://www.msview.cc
Risk Impact: Medium
File Names: MSView.dll,MSView.exe,MSVprep.exe
Systems Affected: Windows 2000, Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows NT, Windows Server 2003, Windows XP
When Adware.MSView is executed, it performs the following actions:
- Creates one or both of these files:
- %Windir%\MSView.dll
- %Windir%\MSVprep.exe
Note: %Windir% is a variable. The adware locates the Windows installation folder (by default, this is C:\Windows or C:\Winnt) and copies the files to that location.
- Attempts to create the registry keys:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{00000580-C637-11D5-831C-00105AD6ACF0}
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\TypeLib\{690BCCB4-6B83-4203-AE77-038C116594EC}
