Gurukeylogger.sip.332 this is the source of the new hacks that have been happening, no anti virus has picked it up scanned with 10 types of antivirus scanners
justa heads up need to find all files ass. with that file name and remove
Admin Edit: This is blatant misinformation. I'm assuming you are trying to tell people that we had a keylogger on Guru and this is how people got hacked. Not only is this absolutely false, but no one who has been hacked has been infected from this site. We have gone through our servers, our ad servers and more. You are wrong, if you've been infected with a virus such as this it's from your own internet surfing, giving out your passwords, etc. and not this site.
I won't even address the fact that you gave no useful information in your post for anyone.
Gurukeylogger.sip.332 scan now

and how did you know of this file?
White Lies

Rather than making a rather vague post could you actually tell us how you found it? details people details.
Fril Estelin
One very simple question: who named this keylogger?
Aera
Not a very clever name for a keylogger if you want to do damage. Come on, as a hacker you wouldn't want your files to be found do you?
Darkobra
So you scanned with 10 types of antiviruses, not one has picked it up and you somehow found it? So how do you expect us to remove it?
skitz
this got 2 of my guildies, he serched for keylogger in his computer and thatd what popped up, this is serious. they even took his customized wepons and runes off his armour.
Arduin
And now what? Time for everyone to start panicking? Anyone now of some means to remove these loggers?
Edit: I've searched for keyloggers on my machine, couldn't find any, and I haven't been hacked of late. Guess I'll grab some more cake.

Aswell as how to remove them details, how about whereabouts they came from? i know it says Guru on it but i've been a member for ages and have yet to see any traces of this. What have you guys been doing? have you clicked any ads? downloaded any programs linked to from here?

My guess is they clicked on one of those links in the topics that are randomly created with random keywords to attract hits from google (Those topics are mostly deleted within 5 min)
And thus they got infected.
And thus they got infected.

I find the lack of respond from the OP, disturbing.

If you can get adware installed on your computer from a random website, why not a keylogger.
Kusandaa
I'm gonna check on this computer now, if I try and tell my parents on how to scan my desktop they'll break it apart.
I'm curious on how he found it though...

I can see 3 possible situations here:
1) FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt), the OP invented a story, he's a troll and wants to scare people;
2) Hacker's delight, the guy or one of his friends is a n00b h4ck0r who managed to install a keylogger somewhere and wants to brag about it;
3) Hacker's nightmare, the guy or one of his friends is a white-hat hacker who discovered the keylogger and wants to brag about it.
The tone of the OP suggests that this is not serious, but if we find how the name Gurukeylogger.sip.332 (a very strange name ...) was created, we have our answer.

it's most likely either a FUD or the guy. Most white hat's don't really brag about this kind of stuff at all, from what I've seen.

Stay off the gold buying sites and your fine. viruses don't magically happen, you have to think of the source of all viruses. Hoax or not, stay away from shady sites and you don't get viruses. Another item to watch out for is pictures that may be corrupted, don't click on any pictures and especially stay away from pictures that link to obscure picture hosting sites. Corupted .jpg, .gif, and .tif are nasty little things that you don't need to interact with, as soon as you can see it your infected. Although it takes a skilled coder to be able to create one without a noticable size difference they do exist. Most sites won't display them properly but small image hosting sites will display them just fine and quite happily, usually they embed their own cookie type virus, tracker into the site as well. Why people get so worked up about viruses is beyond me, i do this for a living, and what i have learnt in the last 7 years is that 99% of viruses are I D 10 T errors. The most common way of getting someone else infected is using Social Engineering. 1 other word of advice. If it sounds too good to be true, IT IS!!!
Personally i don't run any AV software, i just do a scan once a week and i haven't had a virus in YEARS. So any tard that is getting infected on a daily basis, IT YOUR FAULT... yup i said it, but its true.
If you have a virus and can't figure out how to get rid of it, and your AV program won't clean it send me a pm and i'll give you some tips.

1) you click the picture;
2) the browser goes awry;
3) the vulnerability is used by a particular program for direct exploitation.
Step 3 can be stopped by the use of up-to-date antiviruses, use Firefox and not IE, use Firefox add-ons such as NoScript.
You only get infected when your security (see this guide) is not good enough or you're one of the few unfortunate victim of a 0-day exploit.

dudes basic crap ... if it happens that you have a keylogger or your computer and you av (in case you have any, i don`t use them) does not pick it up, than the easiest way to protect you from gettin yer gw account hacked is by letting the game remember your username.. trust me on this one. Because all that keyloggers do is record your keystrokes and mouse clicks. There are some that acutally do screenshots on predetermined intervals but most ppl will not use that option because loggers send to an email which eventually will be crowded with 100`s upon 100`s of emails per day. Only opening each one will take 3-4hours of someone`s day. By not actually typing your username when u login will make the guy reading the log with only the pass and he will need to figure out the email address that is used with GW. If it happens that u use the same email as your usual one .. than you are pretty much screwed cause he will find it in logs (if he has enough patience), but if it`s different u`ll let a hacka stare at yer useless pass

Even if this was real, just because it has guru in it doesn't mean it's from guildwarsguru.

Be safe and don’t be a fool
1. Run a firewall Always
2. Run an antivirus an update and scan as much as possible
3. Run a free or purchased Malware scanner Scan periodically
4. Phishing protection turn it on
5. Clean your system periodically Example; CCleaner
6. Do not blindly click ever… wait for pages to load.
7. When pulling up a download page (antivirus or update etc) be careful on what you click sometimes ad banners look identical to what you are downloading
8. Let windows update itself (many security flaws can be fixed this way)
9. Update your Java (there is a new one that was just released)
10. If infected write down the information. Read up on what the little buggers can do. This is a more precautionary step. If you find a virus knowing what the name of it is can help support staff. Most scanners keep logs but if the virus shuts you out are you going to remember it?

Guru doesn't have a keylogger, but you do because you've been going god-knows-where on the internet.
Not to mention that you're throwing your own mistakes onto Guru.
What a terrible way to conduct yourself.

Seeing as the OP has completely abandoned this thread, I assume we have fed this troll long enough.

Maybe the OP was infected as well as his computer. This virus could be more dangerous than we think. The OP could have simply been trying to warn us but now he's in a hospital bed somewhere with no access to guru.
Or maybe he was just seeing if this thread would make it to a second page.

wtf like theres a keylogger going around

1) Nobody is going to name a keylogger GuruKeylogger.
2) If its on your PC it will already be running and you wont be able to delete it.
3) Files don't automatically download and execute unless your systems seriously out of date.
4) A firewall should block a keylogger detectable or not

keylogger.... maybe not but this site is going to give my pop up blocker a nervous break down one day.
Rocky Raccoon
As a regular poster on this forum, I have no worries that any keylogger is coming from this site. If you Google the keylogger you mention the only 2 results are from posts you have made.

- It wasn't from guru
- You are sharing passwords and logging onto each other's Guild Wars accounts
