What to do now4 steps

This file is harmful. Don't run it, and remove it.

If you haven't run it

  1. Don't run this file. Delete it, then empty the Recycle Bin.

If you already ran it

  1. Disconnect the device from the internet, then run a full antivirus scan. Microsoft Defender Offline (Windows Security > Virus & threat protection > Scan options) also finds malware that hides while Windows runs.

  2. If you typed passwords on the device after running it, change them from another device you trust.

  3. If the scan keeps finding it, or the device still acts strangely, scan again with a second-opinion scanner from another company; if that doesn't fix it, back up your personal files and reinstall Windows.

If you already ran it, do these in order.

If you opened or installed it

The reasoning behind this verdict

Analyst conclusion

Major vendors including BitDefender, Kaspersky, ESET, Microsoft and Ikarus identify it as the Mofksys/Gosys worm family. It was first seen on Oct 24, 2026 from a single source and carries no publisher signature.

Where this verdict could be wrong1 caveat
  • No sandbox run is available, so the worm-like spreading behaviour named by the engines has not been observed by our own analysis.

These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
