The primary purpose of E1BC.tmp is to introduce additional malware to the system. Like most Trojans, E1BC.tmp is distributed in a variety of ways; phishing emails, infected links, questionable ads and drive-by downloads are merely a few of the propagation methods employed by E1BC.tmp. Once on the computer, E1BC.tmp will immediately manipulate the Windows Registry and make itself a start-up program. Furthermore, E1BC.tmp may also modify the Windows settings, weakening the system defenses and opening backdoors. As a result of the manipulations employed by E1BC.tmp, the computer performance may be impacted. Your mileage may vary depending on the hardware configuration.
