Help Remove SysWOW64 Trojan - How to Delete SysWOW64 Easily?


A sufferer has words to say about SysWOW64.


"Since SysWOW64 has been found on my computer, I am suffered a lot. Last night I was surfing in Chrome and suddenly it crashed. I restarted my machine and Chrome. When I then went onto some websites I was absolutely bombarded with ads and pop-ups. Even worse is when I click on something I want to look at I get taken to a dodgy page in some dark corner of the net. My machine is nearly unusable. Most video players crash and most websites I visit are now not even worth bothering with. Same with Firefox.
I have low technical ability so please be patient with me if you do decide to help."



Infected with SysWOW64?


SysWOW64 has been very active for almost one year. Many computer users have been suffered a lot from it. As an extremely powerful trojan, SysWOW64 is able to affect machines running Windows operating system and IOS. Typically, SysWOW64 can be downloaded from the malicious websites or famous websites both planted with trojan installer. Freeware downloading is also inserted with the exploit code that can install SysWOW64 automatically without users' approval and awareness.


Misc issues caused by SysWOW64:


- Password protected files that can't be scanned. Privacy data like credit card details and account log-in details is at risk. They can be collected for the remote hackers for cyber criminal activities.

- Syswow64 folder on all computers, which are not created by the victim. Also, several strange icons display on the destktop.

- Security center won't turn on. Windows Firewall has been shut down.

- Permissions are skewed / as well as inheritable permissions

- The majority of the computers have the "recycler virus" / s-1-21 500/1000

- Registry issues happen, like being changed, modified and corrupted.

- Slow connection speed via wifi. The infected computer runs like a turtle swimming in the peanut butter. Longer time is needed to finish downloading a webpage, to startup browser and to execute any program. Some legit programs are even being blocked from running.

- Multiple svchost.exe processes run on start up, taking up 100% local disk space.

- Ghost audio from time to time on laptop. Auto advertisements are playing in the background and victims don't know where to find them to shut down.

- There is a .txt file stating "computer will run as normal and users will have access to almost all applications" as if it was code for a virus/malware program.

- There are multiple net users files the computer users don't create. Actually, the net users files are created by hackers which access the infected computer via the help of SysWOW64 trojan.

- Almost all folders have desktop.ini files with varying information. Files are added strange extensions and unknown files are created by SysWOW64.

- Files has been deleted and corrupted. Most files are scheduled to "run in a separate memory space".
