I Googled the info below from www.spywareguide.com/product_show.php?id=2851. It is nasty spyware. Not all antivirus software addresses spyware. F-Secure spots it for sure--don't know if it removes it, but the the free Ad-Aware from Lava Soft might. The free Windows Defender antispyware product from Microsoft might also remove it. Supposedly manual removal info is below. Good luck.
Comment: QQRob is a password-stealing trojan. It also has the ability to disable anti-virus products and security related utilities. This trojan modifies the registry entries so that it executes whenever any text file(*.txt) is opened. This trojan blocks access to certain sites by altering the hosts file in Windows. Manual removal: 1. Click Start > Run. 2. Type regedit 3. Click OK. 4. Navigate to the subkey: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\txtfile\shell\open\command In the right pane,modify the value: "(Default)" = "C:\WINDOWS\system32\impai.exe "%1"" to "(Default)" = "%SystemRoot%\system32\NOTEPAD.EXE %1" 5. Close the Registry Editor. Properties: Adds other software Attacks security software Connects to the internet No EULA present No standard Uninstaller Stealth Tactics |
