What is Zekos?
What is Zekos?
The Zekos trojan (also known as Trojan.Patched.Zekos) is responsible for problems like audio ads playing in the background.
Zekos is known to modify rpcss.dll and svchost.exe.
Once Zekos is installed, it will connect to a remote server, and can also monitor internet activity.
Most antivirus vendors will detect Zekos using their heuristic engine of behaviour blocking, but these zero-day variants are often difficult to detect, especially when security products only use virus signatures to detect malware.
