More Information

Troj/LdPinch-AL is a backdoor and password stealing Trojan.

Troj/LdPinch-AL harvests passwords, computer information and account
information and emails it to a specific email address.

When first run Troj/LdPinch-AL copies itself to the Windows folder
as csrss.exe and registers itself as a service process with the
name "Syscheck" and the display name "Syscheck".

Troj/LdPinch-AL creates the helper file hdll.dll in the Windows
folder that logs keystrokes to the following path:

%WINDOWS%\winlog\<random>.ilj


Troj/LdPinch-AL will also attempt to terminate a number of anti-virus
and security related processes.
