If you got a rat/keylogger by java driveby, do they dissapear if you just delete java? and the files + virus scans

 

 

interesting question, since it's written in java it probably requires java to be installed. which might be a reason why people don't write it in java?(idk if ppl do or dont)

 

write it in C# or any windows language, and there's a guarantee that it will always work

 

if you even want to go deeper, rat's can get into your motherboard

 

that shit's nasty

Honestly you should just reinstall your entire OS.

 

A Java keylogger (if it really is java), probably wont be recognized by antivirus software because they're very rare (antivirus works by matching known malware code signatures, so unknown viruses are unlikely to be matched).

This interested me so I googled bios malware and found a pretty good article over it http://arstechnica.com/security/2013/10/meet-badbios-the-mysterious-mac-and-pc-malware-that-jumps-airgaps/
