| - 4TautOo.exe is a trojan found when installing infected/hacked/pirated Steam games. 4TautOo.exe is most commonly passed through on pirated games from pirate sites such as Pirate Bay. On some computers, it may slow down the computer or use up more CPU and/or memory. It does not give out payloads and can stop responding. A user will know if they have 4TautOo.exe if they recieve a '4TautOo.exe is not responding' textbox or if they do a normal malware/virus scan. 4TautOo.exe's origins are currently unknown but may just originate on The Pirate Bay among many other torrenting sites used for pirating games. It is easily identifiable by its unknown name and its severity is not that big. 4TautOo.exe's processes are currently only known as 4TautOo.exe or a blank textbox in the Processes tab in Task Manager. It may be able to affect registry entries but this has yet to be proven. It can open a backdoor to your computer if it uses Windows 95/NT 4.0/98/ME/2000/XP/Vista. Windows 7 may also be vulnerable but this is also yet to be proven. It is not known if it can infect Windows 8 or 10. 4TautOo.exe may also add PUPs and try to slow your PC down into very slow rates. 4TautOo.exe may add registry entries into HKEY_CURRENT_USER and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. These registries will be somewhat a cause an unstable operating system (Windows only). Macintosh Computers and Linux are also able to also receive this trojan, yet however this is currently unknown and/or has yet to be tested in a Virtual Machine. This virus cannot wipe boot sectors of your hard drive. It is not known if it can destroy or harm the BIOS. It can only damage the speed of which the processor can run and with the programs it adds to the registries, possibly cause minor malfunctions and you of your system. It can affect your system's legitimacy and may be able to effectively remove the key and or its legitimacy. This isn't common however and may only occur every 1/256 times of booting your system up. If this does happen, your best option is to follow the third way of removing 4TautOo.exe, formatting and reinstalling a genuine copy of Windows. This virus can affect programs on your desktop prior to installing PUPs and the trojan itself. Do not:
* Plug in any devices, such as iPhone, Android, or Windows Phone. This trojan can affect iTunes, too. Plugging in your phone while the trojan is still online may be able to partially delete all visible files that you can access from the phone directly. It may only delete the photos and videos on your iPhone and Windows Phone but if it is an Android phone, your phone may not work.
* Plug in any external hard drives with important data. It may infect the external hard drive and will become portable. This means it will spread to the next uninfected computer you plug it into causing minor damage to the internal proccessor speed of other computers.
* Try remove any registry entries yourself unless you know what to do. Avoid intervention with the registries unless you have a program for cleaning or you are an IT expert and can identify infected registries or new registries the trojan and PUPs put in from important system files.
