The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

W32/Sality.gen.c  running rampant on network...

Asked by CecilAdmin in Anti-Virus

Tags: W32/Sality.gen.c, McAfee, NTRootKit-AB (Trojan), RemAdm-ProcLaunch!171 (Remote Admin Tool), Spam-Mailbot (Trojan)

Has anyone seen this virus recently?  Somehow this virus has entered our network and is dropping other trojans and rootkits such as the following:

+ NTRootKit-AB (Trojan)
+ RemAdm-ProcLaunch!171 (Remote Admin Tool)
+ Spam-Mailbot (Trojan)

The virus seemed to spread quickly today.  We have various versions of McAfee Enterprise installed on the network.  Some clients have 8.0, 8.5i, and 8.7i.  The servers all have th latest 8.7i and the 04/13/09 McAfee DAT.  Despite being protected with On-Access, Access Protection, and overflow protection, this virus seems to disable the client version and redistribute the virus to servers via mapped network drives and/or vise versa.  Quite common is the autorun.inf which seems to initiate the virus from either the server or the client which kicks off various .pif files, infectious exes, other autorun.infs, and/or trojans.  We have flirted with disabling Autorun (on all drives) via GPO with no success.

Has anyone seen this or have any recommendations?   Various online resources and contact seems to yield minimal results.  Any information would be greatly appreciated.
