To all Swift Kit users

[oi OzzY io]

i currently scanning with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, we shall see what it brings up ^_^

Thanks for the advice mate ^_^

I think that I am in the clear, mainly because I haven't actually started up Swiftkit for days. The last time I loaded the client was 3-4 days ago, and at the end of the night when I am done using my laptop I just close the lid and Swiftkit remains minimized. I'm not sure whether it makes a difference or not, but because I haven't actually loaded up the client today I am hoping I am safe.

I also checked out all running processes earlier before I ran AVG & Malwarebytes scans. There were no funny things running from what I could see, and there was not an extra winlogon process running. I am going to be keeping a close eye on it though.

SHIT! i have winlogon and it says i CANT end the process...

Try a system restore, it may be ultimately safer to just reinstall Windows though.

i dont know how to do this :/

Start >Search: 'system restore'> click on it and select a date where your PC was not infected.

EDIT: I have winlogon also, pretty sure it's part of Windows. What makes you think you are infected?

I have it downloaded but I've never logged in with it before. Also I didn't uninstall it, I just deleted everything I saw to do with it, hopefully I'm still safe

winlogon.exe isn't necessarily a virus, Im quoting this from a site:

"The process "winlogon.exe" runs in the background. Winlogon is a part of the Windows Login subsystem, and is necessary for user authorization and Windows activation checks."

Only in some cases it can be a virus, spyware, trojan or worm.

Ahh this thread made my feel all warm and fuzzy inside, due to my hatred towards the SwiftKit team

I'm avoiding using the client, but wouldn't the client be safe? The runescape browser on there isn't correlated at all to the site and I use the admin swiftkit as I am an admin on there.

Also it should be down and back up and running within the week if not already but don't check.

I based my old client off theirs and if their site was externally accessed they can definately edit the pages that swiftkit remotely access to download RAT's/TROJANS etc in the background while you are using SwiftKit.
And They wouldn't be able to update/shutdown swiftkit until they gained control of their site again.

So are you saying swiftkit are behind this?
