The shcev9j01b1 naming convention is not unique. I was infected by MP2008 and everything was named with lphcg320ea7e or phcg320ea7e. The removal instructions are pretty standard but object naming convention may vary.

I hate these kinds of programs! I have had several on my pc and even had to reformat them to get rid of some of them. Its a fraud rip off. But such is life. Thanks for sharing.

The most exciting part of this virus, after I finally destroyed, I think, is that I get to choose a new Wallpaper for my desktop, lol.
