This is probably not the right community but I haven’t found a better one.

So I watched a video from Seytonic where he mentiond that some malware creates a windows link with the name of the usb on a usb. So I checked my usb because I remembered that I had to click 2 times on my usb to opened it. I found a link that contained cmd.exe and a name of a file next to it. Upload to the virustotal showed Raspberry Roblin worm.

I use Linux but my familly uses windows so I will have to go through all familly computers and remove the worm. Where can I find info how to remove this specific worm - Raspberry Roblin? On google I found a description about how the worm works but not specific files it creates and how to remove it.

The first page that shows up is microsoft.com and it says that windows defender detects the worm, but clearly it doesnt.

Edit: The worm was on one computer and it did not have windows defender installed. Seems like malware removed it and also disabled automatic updates. I installed MalwareBytes and sucessfully removed the worm :)

    Never heard of this site and would not recommend people plug in their cc details here. Use at your own risk.

    Further, these sites often buy cracked codes from people and that just fuels corporate layoffs and really just hurts the people who put the time and energy into making good products that actually work well and outperform others (like BitDefender)

    BD also has an excellent research lab who contributes to the intel community frequently, which benefits everyone

    Just my 2c. I don’t mind paying for things that work as advertised and are priced fairly.

        Nbd, I know you were - was just pointing out potential harm that people may have otherwise not been aware of
