Nach mehrmals neu formatiert und aufgesetztem Windows ist internat.exe auch im System - demnach wird's wohl harmlos sein

I was suspicious of mine, but copied internat.exe onto floppy from machine that's neevr ever been connected to internet, then compared them using a Sinclair QL and my own "compare" utility, they were the same. Suggest everyone copies their good internat.exe to internat.old and compares every time they feel worried.

This file can part of virus which my company is still recovering from, be weary check process explorer to see if its running, if so you may have a worm. It is a legit file from microsoft as well, if you are worried you may have an infection delete the file. If you are not experiencing any problems, leave the file

Worms and trojans used this file name.

The legit one is ~20K, the trojan is ~35K go to Semantek for removal tools; also I;ve heard conflicting reports about the icon; the most reliable source says the '?' icon is on the legit version.

One version is good another is bad. If you have a a blue icon on the R/H of taskbar right click it and it will explain what it is, on WinXP/Win98 you can run the "msconfig" command (START RUN) and deselect it from starting up automatically. If it still loads after this then it might be the virus. Will make a page on my site for more resources when I get the time.

I always use mozilla everywhere and internat.exe is never started. Symantec says the virus is 80kb and the original is 20kb. This one is 40kb, maybe a variant. I renamed the file, this is the only way to disable its unauthorized startup.

Internat causes an ERROR when closing IE on my fully updated NEW installation of win98 ... Who needs it ? (maybe rename exe)
  PIRATE  

I deleted the Internat.exe because it only was starting when i connected to the internet...the switching between US and GER keyboard settings is still available...i located it in the system32

Here's the scoop. I just installed INTERNAT.EXE from the Microsoft download site. INTERNAT.EXE is now in C:/WINDOWS/SYSTEM with a dark blue icon and white question mark [?]. Just right click and check the properties. It shows Microsoft Corporation and other valid data. I now have traditional Chinese viewable to my browser. Some previous posts say the [?] icon says virus. Not so.
