[KAMANA]

I got to know about this spooldr file from my friend. According to him it is a Trojan Horse, which infects our computer and slows it down. It stores itself in windows folder and creates problems. So how do I protect my computer from this Trojan Horse. Can some one help me.

Yes it is a Trojan Horse which infects computer based on Microsoft Operating System Platform. It makes use of Trojan.Packed.13 malware application. This Tojan.Packed.13 is distributed through Spam called Peacomm. It then downloads a small process on the computer and then initializes applet.exe, on the computer.

Yes it is a trojan horse which will create a lot of problem for a Microsoft based computer. In order to protect your computer from it you need to keep some important things in mind and follow them everytime. Never visit any untrusted websites. Never download attachments from unknown users. Never open mails from unknown senders. And always keep your Internet Security Suite updated for newer threats. This should help you to keep your computer safe from malicious attacks and mainly from spooldr.

Okay so just by following the steps given above I will be safe from most of malicious attacks and mainly from spooldr. I am using Kaspersky Internet Security Suite. So is it capable to handling such major threats. And is it complusory to update the my Internet Security Suite regularly. Because it takes a lot of time to update, so i update my Security Suite once or twice a month. Is it fine.
