Trojan.Gromozon is a dangerous and complex threat that attempts to install various malware components onto the user's computer. Trojan.Gromozon is typically installed through browser exploits and makes several attempts to hide itself and to disable or bypass anti-malware tools. Once Trojan.Gromozon is active, it loads various pieces of Adware onto the machine, usually the LinkOptimizer trojans and premium-rate dialers. Trojan.Gromozon uses several tricks to hide the presence of some of its files and to make its removal as hard as possible; some of the techniques it uses include random filenames, reserved Windows filenames, use of alternate data streams (ADS), random named hidden system services, creation of new random-named administrator accounts with executables hidden by the Windows encrypted file system (EFS). Trojan.Gromozon ... denies access to several security-related web sites, blocks the execution of many anti-malware tools, and prevents antivirus and antispyware software from being updated. Trojan.Gromozon has been seen mostly on web pages containing random words and sentences in Italian; clearly, these pages have been deliberately fabricated to be indexed on search engines.
