Check your process list for 'rcpnetp.exe'. Just checked my six month old Toshiba Satellite Pro C650, happily it was clean.


I see related Google results for 'rpcnet.exe'. Not sure if they are related yet (spelling error?).

Also, I wonder how quickly they could rename the executable to deter removal, given the nature of their 'Persistence Module' and antivirus industry cooperation.


rpcnet.exe seems to be essentially same thing as rpcnetp.exe, only without the BIOS persistence hack.
