What are the Trojans capable of?

The Trojans are probably the most famous class of malware. For most web users, however, what they do is still a mystery. The reason is, threats like Devine Software Oy and Great Discover are incredibly versatile when it comes to the malicious actions they can perform. When they infect the system, the Trojans initially appear to be something completely harmless. Once installed, they can be controlled remotely by the hackers who give them instructions on what to do. That’s why we can’t tell you precisely what kind of damage you should expect. But we can surely list some of the most common uses of these infections, so you can get an idea of their versatile nature.

One of the most common uses is for theft. Trojans can be used to steal sensitive information such as personal or work-related documents, account login credentials, passwords, financial information, credit and debit card numbers, etc. The obtained information can be transferred to remote servers controlled by hackers and it can be used to perform crimes such as blackmailing, online banking fraud, theft of identity, and more.

A Trojan like Devine Software Oy can also be used to exploit the resources of your machine. For example, this malware can employ the computer’s RAM and CPU to mine cryptocurrencies for someone else. Or it could turn the machine into a bot and use it to send out spam and spread malware such as Worms, Spyware, and Ransomware to other computers. And if this is not dreadful enough, a Trojan can hack into your camera and/or microphone and monitor your conversations, capture embarrassing videos and audio files, and even record everything you type on your keyboard.

The above is just a very small portion of the potential harm that an infection such as Devine Software Oy may cause. Therefore, it’s best not to wait any longer and remove this Trojan as soon as possible. It would also be a good idea to learn how to avoid those threats in the future as they can compromise you again if you happen to click on one of their numerous transmitters. That’s why the best way to protect your computer is to invest in a better antivirus program and to keep it up-to-date with all the new virus definitions. We also advise you to browse the web safely and avoid potential sources of malware such as illegal download sites, spam emails, online ads, and shady attachments.

Once you do that, we recommend you reboot the compromised computer in Safe Mode (follow the steps from the link) and then come back to this guide to complete the rest of the Devine Software Oy removal steps.

Once in Safe Mode, click the Start Menu and search for msconfig in the search bar, then press enter from the keyboard. In the new window, select Startup and search for unfamiliar Startup Items that might have been added by Devine Software Oy. If you find anything suspicious, disable it by unchecking its checkmark and save the changes by clicking on OK.

WARNING! READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING!

The most challenging thing about dealing with Trojan Horses like Devine Software Oy is that these threats typically start a number of malicious processes without the victim’s knowledge. These processes run without much visible symptoms and are hard to detect or distinguish from regular system processes, therefore, in most cases even experienced security professionals may find it hard to detect and stop the malicious processes without the help of an anti-malware software.

If you are very observant, however, you may be able to spot some dangerous processes when you click the Processes tab of the Task Manager.

To open the Task Manager press CTRL + SHIFT + ESC together and then, in Processes, filter the processes by name, CPU and Memory usage.

Then, if you spot something unusual, right click on it, select Open File Location and scan the files found in that file location with the powerful free online virus scanner below:

Each file will be scanned with up to 64 antivirus programs to ensure maximum accuracy
This scanner is free and will always remain free for our website's users.
This file is not matched with any known malware in the database. You can either do a full real-time scan of the file or skip it to upload a new file. Doing a full scan with 64 antivirus programs can take up to 3-4 minutes per file.

    This scanner is based on VirusTotal's API. By submitting data to it, you agree to their Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, and to the sharing of your sample submission with the security community. Please do not submit files with personal information if you do not want them to be shared.

    Then, after the scan completes if anything dangerous is found in the scanned files, end the processes by right-clicking on it and selecting End Process. Also, don’t forget to delete the dangerous files.  

    It is well-known that Trojan threats may often make unauthorized changes in various system files. A typical target for such changes is the Hosts file, where malicious IPs might be added without any notifications.

    That’s why, in this step, we will show you how to check your Hosts file for unauthorized alternations. For that, press the copy the line below in the Start menu search bar and open the result:

    notepad %windir%/system32/Drivers/etc/hosts

    Then, in the Notepad file that gets open, check for suspicious IPs under Localhost:

    If you find something unusual or disturbing, write to us in the comments.

    Another common location where Devine Software Oy may make changes or add malicious entries is the system’s registry. To check if anything malicious has been added there, type Regedit in the Start menu search bar and press Enter.

    Then, when the Registry Editor opens on the screen, press CTRL and F from the keyboard and type the name of the Trojan in the Find pop-up box.

    Next, start a search and if anything matching that name shows up in the results, then, it most likely belongs to the Trojan and needs to be removed from the registry. 

    If nothing shows up in the search, use the left panel of the Registry Editor to manually navigate to the following directories:

    • HKEY_CURRENT_USER—-Software—–Random Directory.
    • HKEY_CURRENT_USER—-Software—Microsoft—-Windows—CurrentVersion—Run-Random
    • HKEY_CURRENT_USER—-Software—Microsoft—Internet Explorer—-Main—- Random
    Carefully check them all for files and folders with random names. Delete only the entries that you are absolutely sure belong to the threat that you want to remove. If you are not sure, please consider downloading the powerful anti-virus program we recommend or check the suspicious files with our free online virus scanner. Also, feel free to ask us in the comments for help but don’t make any changes in the registry without being sure about them because this may lead to serious system corruption.
