If a computer becomes infected with the Win32.IRCNite spyware, it is time to take some immediate action steps to remove it.  This program is known as a Backdoor Trojan, and is created to provide unauthorized access to a computer by acting as a “Trojan Horse.”  The spyware can cause problems ranging from remote access to a computer by a hacker, to complete destruction of a hard drive, depending on the whim of the file’s creator.

Recommended Action:
Remove at once.

Removing this type of spyware involves the complete removal of all affiliated files and folders, which can be a gargantuan task for someone who is not familiar with it.  Happily, there are excellent anti-spyware programs such as ZookaWare PC Cleaner, created by the Blue Penguin software company, which provide this service and offered guaranteed success against all forms of spyware.  Blue Penguin is a member of the Better Business Bureau.
