Information about trojan.gen.smh.2

trojan.gen.smh.2 is defined as a high level risky trojan horse infection, that is capable of destroying the target system completely once it comes inside. Most commonly, the little pest is likely to infect the computer via spam email, bundled programs, and hacked websites. Hence, when you download unsafe bundled files or visit the dangerous websites without being cautious, you will be infected by the virus without notice.

If you are infected by the bug, you won’t be able to deal with it easily. That’s because the little bug is very malicious. In order to escape the detection and deletion from your decent security tool, trojan.gen.smh.2 will change its location and name randomly once in a while. Besides, it may also disguise its files as system files, so if you want to delete it manually, you may remove some system files by mistake. As a result, other system issues will be triggered. In addition, it also has the ability to slow down the system operation by dropping lots of vicious files to consume the system resources.

1. trojan.gen.smh.2 attacks the system with free downloads from the Internet;
2. trojan.gen.smh.2 injects dangerous files and registry entries to the system;

Norton and most of the other anti virus programs are detecting viruses which aren't really existing, they think it's a possible treat while in real time it isn't even a trojan, but Let me check it out for sure, where did u downloaded the file from.
