ikupimoxihuvuwo.dll

[Lona]

My hubby keeps getting the message that ikupimoxihuvuwo.dll could not be found.

I have googled to see what this dll is and nothing comes up.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'd be inclined to run a full AV scan as file name looks too long to be legit.

Looks like a previously unreported exploit, Safemode and Malwarebytes time.

I agree it's not a normal file or name

Is there any indication of what program it refers to, Lona?  Anything in the error logs?  I agree with the others, it doesn't look legit.

I can only agree with everyone else. You almost certainly have something you don't want and probably something very new.

Message reads.....................

There was a problem starting C:\users\euan\AppData\local\ikupimoxihuvuwo.dll

Run CCleaner to remove all the temp files,that may well get rid of it.

It is either something he downloaded or a drive by injection of some malware.

Have run Malewarebites and it found 4 trojans with weird sounding names.

Rysbins, wqujaneyule but didn't find ikupimoxihuvuwo.dll

However after deleting them and rebooting the message has now gone.

Thanks guys.

The .dll would be a part of the whole package so it wouldn't show up individually on Malwarebytes.

Hopefully it is gone for good.

You could down load the free version of Prevx it will show you if you have anything else, its cloud based protection is better than just signatures or heuristics IMHO, its a tiny download, worth the double check after an infection.

[Simon]

Seconded, but the free version won't actually remove anything it finds, unless you pay for the full version, if I'm not mistaken.

Using a free online scanner to check your machine is just as easy, is an excellent tool http://eset.co.uk/ThreatCenter/OnlineScanner/  others are  Housecall/ Macafee/ Norton there are plenty out there.
