One of our readers was facing problems due to the virus named as mIRC which is also known as IRC-Worm.Mircup, IRC/DeathTech, WIN.IRC.Virus and Trojan:IRCDeath.
The Trojan operates mostly upon IRC (Internet Relay Chat) if that is installed in the system. This Trojan is designed to update the mIRC version and looks like a harmless and useful program but in reality it does something that disables the mIRC or even causes some serious system problems.
Steps:
To remove the Trojan perform following actions
1. Look for a process titled “irc-worm.mircup.exe” in the task manager and kill it.
2. Also search for the same file “irc-worm.mircup.exe” in the computer to delete it.
3. Now download the Malwarebytes Anti Malware (http://board.nickcs.com/index.php/topic,8760.0.html) and scan the system using it.
Hope the Trojan is removed.
