Threat Scorecard
EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecard
EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards are assessment reports for different malware threats which have been collected and analyzed by our research team. EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards evaluate and rank threats using several metrics including real-world and potential risk factors, trends, frequency, prevalence, and persistence. EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards are updated regularly based on our research data and metrics and are useful for a wide range of computer users, from end users seeking solutions to remove malware from their systems to security experts analyzing threats.
EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards display a variety of useful information, including:
Popularity Rank: The ranking of a particular threat in EnigmaSoft’s Threat Database.
Severity Level: The determined severity level of an object, represented numerically, based on our risk modeling process and research, as explained in our Threat Assessment Criteria.
Infected Computers: The number of confirmed and suspected cases of a particular threat detected on infected computers as reported by SpyHunter.

Trojan.Agent.KFM is a generic detection for a malicious Windows program that behaves like a trojan. The "Agent" label is used for harmful files that match the general behavior of known trojans without belonging to one specific named family — a common way for security tools to catch new or modified malware.
SpyHunter actively detects files that match this signature. Files flagged under this detection are often unsigned and compressed with the UPX packer — a common technique for shrinking and lightly obscuring malicious binaries.

What Is a Generic Trojan Detection?
Generic detections flag malware based on shared traits rather than an exact fingerprint. Files caught as Trojan.Agent typically run silently, connect to remote servers, and may steal data, deliver more malware, or grant remote control. Given the broad label, the safe course is to treat the file as malicious and remove it.
How It Spreads
These trojans are distributed via phishing attachments, malicious links and downloads, cracked software, and bundling with other threats. The use of UPX packing helps the file evade simple signature checks and reduces its size for faster delivery.
What Trojan.Agent.KFM May Do
- Data theft: access files, credentials, and system information.
- Payload delivery: download and run additional malware.
- Remote access: potentially provide a backdoor for attackers.
- Evasion: UPX packing to hinder basic detection.
Symptoms of Infection
- Unfamiliar processes and unexpected outbound connections.
- Security software disabled or malfunctioning.
- Performance problems and unexplained changes.
Why It Is Dangerous
Because its full capabilities are unknown and it is packed to avoid detection, Trojan.Agent.KFM should be treated as a serious threat. The Threat Scorecard on this page reflects how SpyHunter's systems rank this detection.
How to Remove Trojan.Agent.KFM
Because this threat runs as a file-based Windows infection, removal has two goals: stop the malicious process and delete every component it dropped, then confirm nothing was left behind to reinstall it.
Manual Steps
- Disconnect the computer from the internet to cut the malware off from its command-and-control server.
- Restart Windows in Safe Mode with Networking so the threat is not loaded at startup.
- Open Task Manager and end any unfamiliar or suspicious background processes.
- Check Settings → Apps and uninstall any program you do not recognize or did not intentionally install.
- Review startup entries (Task Manager → Startup) and the
Runregistry keys for entries that point to random file names in temporary folders. - Clear temporary files to remove staging copies of the payload.
Recommended: Run a Full Malware Scan
Manual removal is difficult because modern threats hide components and can restore themselves. The most reliable way to fully remove Trojan.Agent.KFM and any additional malware it may have downloaded is to scan the system with a professional, up-to-date anti-malware tool such as SpyHunter. A complete scan will detect and remove the threat's files, registry entries, and related infections, helping restore the device to a clean, secure state.
Conclusion
Trojan.Agent.KFM is a generic, packed trojan that warrants prompt removal. Eliminate it with a trusted security tool and run a full scan to clear the threat and any additional payloads it may have brought along.

Similar Families
Similar Families
This section lists other families that share similarities with this family, based on EnigmaSoft’s analysis. Many malware families are created from the same malware toolkits and use the same packing and encryption techniques but uniquely extend functionality. Similar families may also share source code, attributes, icons, subcomponents, compromised and/or invalid digital signatures, and network characteristics. Researchers leverage these similarities to rapidly and effectively triage file samples and extend malware detection rules.- Agent.KFM
