Zlob (Trojan.Zlob) Removal Instructions
April 2nd, 2008 by Alex
Zlob (Trojan.Zlob) Descriptions:
Zlob, also known as Zlob.Trojan or Trojan.Zlob, is a “Backdoor Trojan” that gives the invader or attacker a bridge to remotely control your computer. By remotely controlling your computer, it allows them to install all kind of malicious softwares to your computer. It can also delete and modify files, and put your privacy in danger.
Technically, a Trojan, or Trojan horse, is a piece of software codes or scripts that seems to perform one thing but does something else. It is not a computer virus by itself. However, it can open a door for wealth of computer viruses or spywares to be installed on targeted machines.
Zlob.Trojan is known to install fake anti-spyware program such as IE Defender, AntiVirGear, VirusProtect, SpyCrush and SpyLocked. Therefore, it’s very critical to remove Zlob from from your computer if it was infected. You can try our recommended SpyHunter* Spyware Detection Utility, which is very intuitive and highly efficient. Zlob or Zlob.Trojan can be removed automatically. However, if you are familiar with registry edit and dll files in Windows, we strongly recommend you to try Zlob manual removal instructions. It might take time and patience, but it is equally effective if you get it right.
As always, we will constantly update the instructions to combat against Zlob or Zlob.Trojan / Trojan.Zlob. Please feel free to post comments if you have any questions or suggestions regarding Zlob. This is a great community and I am sure that you would find the answers. Good luck!

Please help, I got spycrushed, but I think I have that removed. But i’ve done scans with spyhunter and it keeps saying I have a bunch of cookies and the Zlob.trojan iesplg.dll. I found the file that it was located in, and managed to delete the whole folder, but it still shows everytime when I run a scan (and it says it’s in that folder I deleted). Under item name in spyhunter it lists a small icon with a little triangle with !. how do I get rid of this?? please?

mine is a kdid entry into the registry that returns everytime i close and reopen internet explorer. I have searched for and deleted all known files and other registry entries but i am afraid that somehow it attached itself to internet explorer so for now i am using firefox. All my virus does is everytime i use a search engine it gives me the normal results then when i click on one of them it takes me to another search page with other results i can get around it by copy and pasting the links for the results but it gets annyoying any help would be great get at me at brianclanton@yahoo.com

hope this helps someone: after deleting files and cookies and some obvious registry values, I used SureDelete to delete the primary DLL on next boot (ddllup.dll) because I could not unregister it with regsvr32 /u. It came back again and again until I ran the Avenger (http://swandog46/geekstogo/avenger.zip) along with the script videoactive.txt (size 13644 bytes). Best wishes,this one is a pain that was neither caught & fixed by Symantec AV or ClamWin (latest versions).

Hi,
I have downloaded Spyhunter and have located the zlob virus but i need to buy spyhunter for it to delete the virus. I am hopeless at doing it manually so if any one could help me please email me at reece-4@hotmail.com
is there a way for me to use someone elses registered version of Spyhunter?

Going with what Reece said, SpyHunter easily detected the files, but I can’t delete them. My spyware cleaner & virus protection haven’t been working lately and this makes it worse. I’d pay for SpyHuner, but I’m not using a credit card over the internet when it’ll be entirely easy for it to get stolen.
I attempted to do it manually, but I can’t seem to get it all. I’ve also tried two other programs & a virus program…both found things, but less than half of them. No viruses were found…but I need this gone.
Anyone care to help?
Quickly if possible…I’ve spent over 6 hours working on this thing. -_-; =[
Please e-mail me
I’m hoping someone can help…else I’ll end up paying someone to fix this and probably loose all my information again knowing the people who fix it.
So eternal thanks to anyone who can help!

I got Zlob somehow, and now I have a lot of viruses/spyware that I can’t remove. I want to reformat the computer but I have a lot of files I can’t risk losing. Is there any way to keep these files without damaging the computer even more and keeping the files virus/trojan-free?

Justin Says
After a recent reformat I contracted Trojan.Zlob aka Zlob. I just wanted to note that none of the Class ID’s, Registry Entries, Processes ~OR~ DLL files listed on ANY pages I’ve seen so far match the files in my Zlob encounter. I generally know what I’m doing at this point (as I’ve only just discovered that this Trojan has a name and an ‘MO’) though I haven’t succeeded I just want to make a few notes.
Like I said none of the files listed on these pages match the ones that are on my machine, they are present however I just used SpyHunter to scan for them and HijackThis to discover which of the Zlob DLL are hooked into which of the Windows Processes. I compiled a general list of Registry Branches / Keys to check as well as using the Class ID’s / File Names of the offending files from the scanners to more likely pinpoint my specific case. Anyway, that’s *all* beside the point.
What I wanted to mention was that although there are grossly unattractive lists of DLL’s / Processes / Registry Keys / etc - it is my belief that this type of Virus is meant to be unpredictable - I don’t believe there to be a set collection of Filenames / DLL / etc that you can check against. It generates new names and new files when it infects and I think the biggest advice I could give anyone with this problem is instead of looking for the quick fix (cause you’re likely to overlook a lot if you’re only expecting a little) take a second to scan your machine with a good scanner, scan your processes and discover which dll’s tie into them (infected ones that is) and then go about the registry and dll process hooks and all that. It will be time better spent effectively succeeding in one (fail) swoop than banging your head against the desk when time after time the stupid dll hooks and files keep reappearing.
That is all.

Zlob was created by one of those Anti-Virus Manufacturers.
