gechie4 Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 If you got a rat/keylogger by java driveby, do they dissapear if you just delete java? and the files + virus scans
The Hero of Time Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 (edited) 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 Edited January 27, 2016 by The Hero of Time

Supreme_ Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 thanks for answer, got it a while back from rsps, dunno if its gone, anitvirus and malware bytes can pickanything up, 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).
