MBR:SST Description
MBR:SST is a rootkit Trojan that can change the master boot record (MBR) of the compromised PC. MBR:SST affects the MBR as it is the first one
to load when the computer is started. This makes MBR:SST to launch automatically whenever you boot up Windows. MBR:SST enters the targeted
machine via insecure downloads of programs or security flaws. MBR:SST may also be distributed to compromised PCs connected to the network. MBR:SST can use removable drives for spreading its copy to other computers. MBR:SST downloads two files, which are the Trojan itself and an autorun.inf file that executes MBR:SST whenever the computer owner inserted the drive on the slot.
Type: Trojans
