We recently had a Virus/Malware attack on our network by the names of TROJ_GEN.R28C7KB and TROJ_KAZY.SMO which were infecting the bogus files named 018.exe and 21D.tmp within C:\Program Files\LP\E650\ on a Windows XP machine.
TrendMicro found and cleaned three (3) in which these same files were located on the hard drive. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware also removed five (5) which TrendMicro did not find. Malwarebytes is free, but TrendMicro also has a free antivirus (here) which can be run from a web browser.
Even so, we had to manual search the registry and hard drive to find and delete a few more instances of similar files with number and mixed number/character names elsewhere on the hard drive. Sorry, did not manage to note these before they were removed.
