....now this is very very peculiar , if you don't ask me , because I found
this name while I browsed the registry driven by a smidgen of curiosity about
a searcher called WhenUSearch . I found 132.dll by double clicking on a
registry entry , the last kind of entry you could reach when looking through
the registry where you would open a Window , you know , the last instance
in the registry where you could open a window . Well , there were , what I
think you call Binary numbers on the left side of the window like 06 08 00
etc...and on the right side of the window , I had to scroll to get to the far
right side of the window , was a whole lot of the usual ditto marks or
commas or whatever you see would usually in there and as I scrolled down the
list I came across 132.dll . Now when I look for 132.dll using Google I find
132.dll is a Trojan .
My question is why would I find 132.dll in the registry when Avast and
Microsoft AntiSpyware did not see it . As far as I can tell 132.dll has been
around for quite a while .
 
You can install all of the antivirus programs and anti spyware programs you
want. If you do not practice safe computing you will still get burned.

Here's what you should do. Search the hard disk(s) for 132.dll (search for hidden and
system files).

When you find it, Please submit "132.dll" to Virus Total --
http://www.virustotal.com/flash/index_en.html
The submission will then be tested against several different AV vendor's scanners.

Another way to submit is to send the suspect file to the following email address
scan<at>virustotal.com
{ replace <at> with @ } with only the word SCAN as the subject.

Please post back the EXACT results.

Just becuase you have a pointer to a DLL in the Registry, it doesn't neccessarily mean it
exists on the hard disk.
Don't forget also that any file can be named anything and malware can use the same name as
legitimage OS or other software files.
