HACKTOOL:WIN32/KEYDUMP!PZ

Detected by Microsoft Defender Antivirus

Aliases: No associated aliases


SUMMARY

Microsoft Defender Antivirus detects and removes this threat.

Hacktools can be used to patch or "crack" some software so it will run without a
valid license or genuine product key.

Beware of running hacktools because they can be associated with malware or
unwanted software.

We often see malware on PCs where hacktools are detected. You can read more
about hacktools in Volume 13 of the Security Intelligence Report.




WHAT TO DO NOW



Use the following free Microsoft software to detect and remove this threat:

 * Windows Defender  for Windows 10 and Windows 8.1, or Microsoft Security
   Essentials for Windows 7 and Windows Vista
 * Microsoft Safety Scanner

You should also run a full scan. A full scan might find other hidden malware.



REMOVE PROGRAMS



You might need to manually remove this program:

 * In Windows 10
 * In Windows 8.1
 * In Windows 7
 * In Windows Vista
