Automatic removal MBS Account Manager

Myantispyware team June 14, 2007    

MBS Account Manager is a program from Micro Bill Systems in the UK. The program provides billing and collection services for websites (mostly adult in nature). This software is potentially unwanted as apart from constantly displaying demands for money for it’s services, attempts to install further unwanted components using ActiveX. MBS Account Manager will display a bill as a pop-up, when the bill is ignored, the popups become more frequent.

A HijackThis log will show two running processes and a Startup entry similar to one of these:

O4 – HKLM\..\Run: [mbssm32] C:\WINDOWS\system32\mbssm32.exe
O4 – HKLM\..\Run: [mbssm32] C:\WINDOWS\system32\smvalid.exe

    Unfortunately this did not work for me.
    Updated and ran Spybot Search & Destroy which picked it up. Removed no worries.

    Many thanks Brute Force seems to have done the biz, used the companies Spybot first, but that did not help. Again many thanks, pop up was locked for up to 10mins, a real pain in the bottom
