One Answer:
Uh oh... According to this document, section 5.1, Torpig communicates via HTTP POST requests that are pretty cryptic - meaning, that there is no human readable part in the post request, just HEX patterns. In your case I'd filter out all packets that do POST request, like this: If you see any, your provider was probably right. Then you need to determine which station it is on your network and take it down, backup all vital data, and reinstall it. Most forensic experts do not advise to try and clean the infected system unless you're a forensic expert yourself, because it is pretty hard to tell if you "got it all". Instead, do the reinstall and start with a clean slate. answered 09 Aug '11, 09:30 Jasper ♦♦ |
