I first discovered this 1 week ago...Actually 2 weeks ago when Xsserver crashed... after that I was losing speeds...

My VPS speeds are now at 1-2mb/s, usually they are 11mbs irate:

Morto Worm is a high level worm
Microsoft is trying to figure out a solution

If POSSIBLE, DO NOT connect to your VPS/RDP at any moment soon...

• are you experiencing low download/internet speeds?
• your VPS interface lagging?
• low upload speeds?
• crappy service?

YOU are probably INFECTED

this virus has been there since the begin of August, maybe earlier, I didn't know about it until today thanks to Crazy & Ericcson

Keep yourself updated with new Win updates & update your AV these days a lot.



The virus uses your VPS/remote desktop to get into your PC, it's said to create a big botNet for DdoS purposes.


I'm trying to figure out if I have the virus (I probably do), but no AV sees it, it's hard to find it

got hit too on one of my machines. best thing to do is reload your machine.

How did you find out it got hit your machines?


btw, when you reinstall windows and connect to your VPS, you get infected again, careful people

Despite the research done by BHW members, THANK YOU, we did not find the virus, maybe because it was too hidden or it just wasn't there.

If anyone is recording weird behavior on their RDP/VPS or been a victim , please tell us more about it, any information will do.

Something is not kosher here... so the only indication is slow connection and your bank blocking your access?

Usually there are other indicators that can be found using hijackthis and such tools and so far we have nothing here...
My vps is slow, but I'm not going to re-install my os because of that, I need more info before I panic. There could be 150 things that influence the speed of vps connection.

I'm not the only one, I have been targeted, by something irate:

Honestly that's what I thought!! I don't know though, it could be a well hidden rootkit - I have seen them a few times - I had one once that literally couldn't be found anywhere, no entries in hjt nothing from virus scan even with drive outside pc, but google entries were being redirected - that turned out to be an infected LAN driver that the virus had embedded itself in.

I am very interested to see what comes to light with this one.

ROFLMAO. Just like all these computer wizards have been saying, just do a wipe, reformat and reinstall some cracked software from a torrent site named "Pirate Bay". Your bank account will be safe then. It's simply amazing the kind of advice you can get for $20.00 or less, lol....
