Severity scale:

(67 / 100)

Wombat is a dangerous trojan that corrupts the infected system. Once executed, it secretly installs itself to the system and runs a payload. The parasite attempts to terminate and then cripple installed antiviruses and security-related programs. It also attempts to delete vital Windows files and folders, and thus destroy the entire system. Furthermore, Wombat disables essential system tools, functions and components such as Registry Editor, Task Manager, CD Burning and Windows Firewall. It can shutdown the compromised computer without asking for user permission. The trojan runs on every Windows startup. Sooner or later Wobmat will destroy the system preventing it from booting and working properly.
