So much for the partially free Cloud version.

 

Fear not, there will still be a free TrojanHunter Cloud. Things have been hectic around here so it has been delayed, but we're working on it.

 

Magnus nice to here from you it's been a while. Glad to hear that TH Cloud is still on.

 

I recently downloaded a free trial of Trojanhunter, and liked it so much I got the family license for up to four computers for half price. I tell you, I like this software a lot. I ran three full scans on my three computers and it found in total nine items, none false positives.

I have a question, though. Exactly what does Trojanhunter Guard do? And what does it mean, on the option, to "unload" it? Does this mean simply to disable it?

 

It is the real-time part of TrojanHunter.

Yes, it means that you disable the real-time part of TrojanHunter.

 

Thanks, I figured that's what unload meant. This is really a solid product. I had been pestered for a long time by an HP image monitoring file that kept trying to load at start up, and Trojanhunter identified it as a trojan and I was happy to have it quarantined. I had tried to disable it in the past and it kept coming back.

 

Hi,

To make sure that it wasn't a false positive by accident, please follow these guide-lines at the TrojanHunter forum:

http://www.misec.net/forum/board/FalsePositives/1293005096

which points to

http://www.misec.net/forum/board/FAQ/1211189968

Among other things, it will ask you to submit the file (and it will tell you how to do that), and to start a thread about it at the TrojanHunter forum (please!).
Please keep in mind that it is Holiday Season

 

For some kind of reason lately there seems to be a "discrepancy" between the US- and EU-update-servers used by TrojanHunter, for example related to the files
TrojanHunter.exe
Gen.dll


I don't know why.

 

Same here!

Hi Daniel,

Thanks.
There are also some postings about it at the TH-forum. Siliconman01 is doing everything he can to get in contact with Magnus. It is kind of puzzling what is happening.....

 

I reinstalled and will only update from the U.S. server to avoid problems.

 

I also just posted there about this issue! http://www.misec.net/forum/board/TrojanHunter;action=display;num=1322802713;start=0#13

Hi G1111,

May I ask what the MD5 checksum is of your setup file TrojanHunterSetup.exe ?
Mine is:
The file TrojanHunterSetup.exe has the following Checksum(s)
MD5 - 95389E731B6660134EC93C4F0385BCDB
It was signed on 06 Dec 2011.

Magnus needs most definitely to make public explanations about what is happening with the EU vs. the US server. It is his company and he needs to get on the boards (he does not even answer questions on his own board) to make things clear.

For now Siliconman01 is advising to use the EU server one time and then to go back to the US server.

Nobody knows whether the EU or the US server gives the right files; only Magnus can tell.

O, and Magnus: when important files are changed, their version/build number needs to be changed.

Hi G1111,

Forgive me for asking:

Are you not confusing the setup file TrojanHunterSetup.exe with the file TrojanHunter.exe ?

Let's please start with the setup-file (which I was asking for), from there we can go on with other files. (and BTW there is still a possibility that re-compiling by Magnus may change checksums; but that is another issue...).

 

Here is mine: MD5 118694649146906A1115D73894B96A9C TrojanHunterSetup.exe

I just downloaded a fresh copy: MD5 - 95389E731B6660134EC93C4F0385BCDB

Hi Dan,

Not sure from when that one was; sorry.

Yep, that is the current setup file.

 

Dec 2nd 2011

Daniel

 

Okay sorry. THSetup.exe
Size 46165200
MD5 95389e731b6660134ec93c4f0385bcdb

 

OK

 

Let's start from scratch.

1.

Again a clean install with setup-file downloaded on 13 Jan 2012 (on XP-home SP3)
The file TrojanHunterSetup.exe has the following Checksum(s)
MD5 - 95389E731B6660134EC93C4F0385BCDB
signed 06 Dec 2011

Some files:

The file C:\Program Files\TrojanHunter 5.5\TrojanHunter.exe has the following Checksum(s)
MD5 - 74EE9512262E997631B81110B2329CEB
signed 06 Dec 2011
size 4.153.112 bytes
size on disk 4.153.344 bytes

The file C:\Program Files\TrojanHunter 5.5\RuleFiles\Gen.dll has the following Checksum(s)
MD5 - EC9F078919BF27FD8D3ECEA803A35AAB
date 06 Dec 2011
size 215.040 bytes
size on disk 217.088 bytes

The file C:\Program Files\TrojanHunter 5.5\UnUpx.dll has the following Checksum(s)

date 06 Dec 2011
size 126.123 bytes
size on disk 126.976 bytes

2.

Run update using the US server to get:

Ruleset datestamp : 2012-01-13
Scan kernel : 5.0 (Aurelius)
Ruleset entries : 495918
Trojan definitions : 117955
Detection rules : 495918

The above files TrojanHunter.exe , Gen.dll , UnUpx.dll are not changed.

3.

Now use the EU server to run for updates.

It is still:
Ruleset datestamp : 2012-01-13
Scan kernel : 5.0 (Aurelius)
Ruleset entries : 495918
Trojan definitions : 117955
Detection rules : 495918

But look:

The file C:\Program Files\TrojanHunter 5.5\TrojanHunter.exe has the following Checksum(s)
MD5 - D87AC59F29F714CFC4CD28EA71C881CA
signed 10 Dec 2011

The file C:\Program Files\TrojanHunter 5.5\RuleFiles\Gen.dll has the following Checksum(s)
MD5 - 8A2CD4FC1E0AFB77E41716CD6923C450
date 14 Jan 2012
size 214.528 bytes
size on disk 217.088 bytes

The file C:\Program Files\TrojanHunter 5.5\UnUpx.dll has the following Checksum(s)

date 14 Jan 2012
size 126.123 bytes
size on disk 126.976 bytes

4.

And then use the US server (as default update server) again to check for updates:

It is still:
Ruleset datestamp : 2012-01-13
Scan kernel : 5.0 (Aurelius)
Ruleset entries : 495918
Trojan definitions : 117955
Detection rules : 495918

The file C:\Program Files\TrojanHunter 5.5\TrojanHunter.exe has the following Checksum(s)
MD5 - D87AC59F29F714CFC4CD28EA71C881CA

The file C:\Program Files\TrojanHunter 5.5\RuleFiles\Gen.dll has the following Checksum(s)
MD5 - 8A2CD4FC1E0AFB77E41716CD6923C450

The file C:\Program Files\TrojanHunter 5.5\UnUpx.dll has the following Checksum(s)
MD5 - 28EDB2BE2ACA0749625B31FD1D70C20B


The above files TrojanHunter.exe , Gen.dll , UnUpx.dll are not changed.

5.
Conclusions/questions:

5.1
The EU and US servers seem to give other files TrojanHunter.exe , Gen.dll .
Is this only a compiling issue, or is there more happening?
Several postings at the TH-forum and advices there indicate that there is more happening than a compiling issue.

5.2
It looks like UnUpx.dll has been updated somewhere lately.

5.3
We need Magnus to explain things.

 

The updating is really screwy when you go to both servers one after another!

TH

 

Maybe in the end it is only a glitch. I know that I sounded a bit too hard. Let's hope that Magnus find the time to look at it and tell us about it. In the meanwhile Gavin is doing a super job with adding lots of detections
