wayuia.sys

Comodo Cleaning Essentials + KillSwitch & Auto Help - CCE

Hello All,

The following entry shows up in Sysinternals Autoruns:

wayuia File not found: C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\wayuia.sys

I did a search online.

Over on the Avast! forum there is a single post calling it the “TRO/ROOTKIT.” See here: NOTE: TRO/ROOT KIT is still undetectable by all AV provider. you may be infected

However, there is also a brief mention of wayuia.sys on this forum that indicates it is generated by, or somehow associated with, CCE:

Anyone?

Boot to Safe Mode and see if wayuia.sys is present or not present in C:\Windows\System32\Drivers. If it does not show up in Safe Mode that is a pretty good indication it is not active on your computer.

In case of doubts it never hurts to check you computer with the following scanners:
gmer rootkit scanner
TDSS Killer rootkit scanner
Hitman Pro
Malwarebytes Antimalware
Super Antispyware
