    My Kaspersky Alert went nuts last night with reporting Trojan.JS.Redirector.xa, where .xa obviously means some endemic new variant of this bug because I couldn't find anything about it, even Kaspersky SecureList have no info except that it's detected on 7.Jan.2013 around 15:48, which is couple of hours before my first Alert.
    I ran scan with Kaspersky in Profile folder of my Mozila/Firefox AppData and found one .html file reported as infected with Trojan.JS.Redirector.xa, but I noticed that this .html file is on my machine for more then 6 months, which means that I picked up something else and that this particular .html is just "collateral victim".
    So, I removed it with Kaspersky easily and continue to browse with my Firefox, assuming that it's a matter of time when new Alert will start popping up, and indeed that happened just a couple of minutes later.
    This time I lacked idea where to look and I haven't been so lucky to find another instance of this nightmare trojan, so I decided to seek HELP !!!

    Also, I ran Kaspersky TDSSKiller and found nothing with it.

    Hello and thank you for your reply !

    I hope my decision to post on more then one forum won't provoke anger, but I apologise anyway. I have response on my post on all 4 different forums and I already engaged in resolving this matter with two guy on two different places. They proposed completely different approaches, so I decided to follow both.

    If those procedures fail I will ask you, if you decide to accept my post by then.

    Apologise and thanks again.

    Santa

    Note: While we appreciate that you very likely posted at multiple forums in order to ensure a response, in the future please do not cross-post. Resources that help perform malware removal are very precious and very limited, and cross-posting only serves to tie up the time of multiple helpers who could be using that time to help someone else who also has problems.
    In the future - choose one forum and stick with that one until they've resolved your problem.
