Other ways that this malware can infect you
As well as this aforementioned piggy backing, such malicious programs have a couple of other tricks up their sleeve: some will be installed by what is known in techy circles as a 'drive-by installation', which is when you visit a website that has been compromised by the W32.SAPE.Heur.9BDD4 malware, and they then pass the infection on to you. That's why you should always make sure that you have the latest version of the Windows installed on your computer and that your anti-virus program is fully updated.
One of these teo installation methods are dealt with in different ways: obviously if you have just bought a used desktop or laptop, you should check what is pre-installed before you start using it. That way you can uninstall anything you don't like the look of. In the case of malicious programs that come bundled with other software, mostly Trojan horses, the trick to avoiding these is to carefully read End User License Agreements when installing or upgrading programs. Make sure you know exactly what you are installing by checking the small print and making sure that agreement boxes are not already checked or unchecked in favor of an add on. Unfortunately there is not a lot you can do about being hit at random by a drive by installation. If you are not so sure if the file you are going to run is malicious upload it to VirusTotal and see if it comes up with anything suspicious.
How to spot SAPE.Heur.9BDD4
On the plus side, if you do have this malware installed on your machine, it is fairly obvious. Your %Temp% folder will be full of randomly named DLL files. Your anti-virus program may pick them up but because it's a pretty new threat it may fail to permanently remove them. Luckily, there are few tools specifically designed to remove such malware.
What does it actually do?
Such malicious programs as SAPE.Heur.9BDD4 are not only seriously harmful but also cause a number of Windows problems. Some will bombard you with pop-up adverts but the majority of them will install that new toolbar and make using your computer unfamiliar. These tool bars are rarely as advanced as the ones we are used to using and will have scant capabilities. They also have an extremely irritating habit of sending you to websites that you don’t want to visit. As you can see, it's possible to allow a remote access to your computer and even hijack your web browser and display adverts. Needles to say, you should get rid of it immediately.
