What is  users32.exe

The users32.exe file is an executable process that has been reported by many users as a variant of the Porn-Dialer.Generic!sd5 program, which is classified by the same user reports as a malicious application that belongs to the worm and Trojan families of malware items. The users32.exe process has also been reported to be capable of automatically initializing during system startup due to the entries and keys it can create and inject into the Windows System Registry upon its successful placement and activation in the Windows-based system. The users32.exe process, according to the same user reports, is said to actively operate in the background during system runtime, in order to search for vulnerable TCP/IP network ports that it can use to initiate contact with predesignated Web servers, which are most likely operated and managed by the authors of the users32.exe malware component. Aside from using these vulnerable TCP/IP network ports to randomly make international calls to predesignated porn sites without user consent, the users32.exe process has also been reported to exploit these TCP/IP network ports for downloading other malicious applications unto the system and for uploading stolen data and Internet browsing information from the infected system and its default Web browser to the remote servers of its authors.
