FUBAR Halt
----------

This is another annoying, and potential harmful, version of this evil series of applications!

This one will cause Windows to perform slower and slower, and eventually stop responding completely.

Installation is as usual: 2 warnings, telling you what you are about to do, lighting-fast install, and nothing more happens.

Next time any user logs into Windows, this application will quickly start 2 processes.
Those processes do nothing. They just stay there, and take up a tiny bit of memory.
After 5 seconds, both processes will launch 2 new processes (4 in total), and quit themselves.
After 5 more seconds, those 4 processes will each launch 2 new processes - and so on.....

It is extremely hard, almost impossible, for the user to end all processes manually.
And within a relative short time, it will take up noticeable amounts of resources and CPU-time.
And it will just keep on going....


As always, here is how to remove it:
- Boot up in safe-mode.
- Open the Registry-Editor (regedit.exe).
- Browse to this key:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Run
- And delete the value named "FUBAR Halt".
