Mrtstub.exe Is Not Detected

[BocaDave]

It appears that IOBit AWC neithert detects nor protects against MRTSTUB.EXE, a nasty bit of Malware that has even protected itself against the Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool.

 

Anyway, somehow MRTSTUB.EXE got past my defenses, and now it is hogging my CPU, doing heavenes knows what to my system.

 

Anyone have any ideas how to get this protection built into AWC, or if that can't be done, how to rid my PC of it and how to keep it from reinstalling itself?

 

Thanks,
