Never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever
Install doom3 alpha patch ( i don`t remember the exact filename)
It contains some kind of trojan or virus.
The trojan/virus starts up with windows as ws32kza.exe
And create a folder in the system32 directory called KLM
It infects some dll files in the win system32 directory, and it create`s 2 folders with blank mp3 files.
And it copies itself in the kazaa shared folder as some popular files, like adobe photoshop etc.
I had this trojan/virus a couple of weeks ago, my virus scanner did not see this file as a virus and i still can`t find it on any of the anti virus sites.
Spybot and ad-aware 6 also doesn`t see them.
So yesterday i opened the file with a hex editor and i saw that some .dll files in the win system directory where listed in the file, also i could see a couple off strings like: Create in
c:\program files\kazaa\My Shared Folder\*FILE NAME*.exe
c:\program files\kazaa lite\My Shared Folder\*FILE NAME*.exe
So i reinstalled my windows xp, since i can`t "clean" the affected files in my windows directory.
So please check if you have a \KLM folder in your windows system32 directory

omg? you sure? i had doom 3 demo and i was sharing the doom path and my antivirus didn't pick anything up? and i scan everything i download?

Yes i am sure, just check your win dir.
And if you search for doom 3 alpha patch in kazaa you will get multiple results, but i can`t remember what the file with the virus inside was.
so maybe your safe

do you have more information about this virus or what does it do? because my computer didn't have virus for now over a year. I scan mostly every week or so..
I looked where you said though nothing. thank god. after you said that about doom 3 path, i got little jumpy because i share that. well i hope its clean nothing picks up
