Trojan.bf7a6249

Trojan.bf7a6249 is a computer infection of the widespread Trojan horse malware category. Trojan viruses like Trojan.bf7a6249 have the ability to use a variety of stealth and disguise tactics to secretly establish a foothold on their victims’ computers and silently perform a variety of malicious actions.

In many cases, people remain utterly unaware of the fact that their system has been compromised by a virus of this category. This is oftentimes due to the specific ways that these threats use to infect the computers of their victims. Oftentimes, it is the users themselves that allow (albeit unknowingly) the virus into their systems. For example, many Trojans travel under the guise of popular games or programs that are distributed for free on illegal file-sharing or torrent sites. Obviously, there would be many who would download the free illegal software hoping they are getting something useful only to eventually find out that it has been a Trojan horse all along.

  • Tip: If you think you have singled out the unwanted process but are not sure, it’s always a good idea to search for information about it on the Internet – this should give you a general idea if the process is a legitimate one from a regular program or from your OS or if it is indeed likely linked to the adware.

  • Once in the File Location folder for the suspicious process, start testing all of the files that are stored there by dragging them to our free online scanner available below.
