Many users claim that their anti-malware applications flag the credu.dll file as a malware item associated with the Win32/Boaxxe.B program, which is a family of Trojans reported to infect unprotected Windows-based systems with missing OS security certificates, unencrypted TCP/IP network ports and an unsecured Windows System Registry. These users state that the credu.dll malware is distributed with EXE component processes that are embedded with the ability to secretly create and inject keys and entries into the unsecured Windows System Registry upon their successful placement and activation in the system. These users claim that these registry strings instruct the system to allow the credu.dll malware and its executable component processes to automatically initialize during system startup and operate as hidden background processes during system runtime. These users reported that, upon the successful initialization of the credu.dll malware, this Trojan is said to be capable of exploiting unencrypted TCP/IP network ports of the unprotected Windows-based computer, especially if certain necessary security certificates are missing from the system. These same users state that the credu.dll malware uses these exploited system vulnerabilities to initiate contact with predesignated remote servers that are managed by the authors of the credu.dll malware, in order to download more malicious applications unto the system or to wait for further instructions and directives from those remote servers. Other user groups reported that their system security tools classify the credu.dll file as a malware item associated with certain components of the TROJ_BZUP.AG program and the PAK_Generic.005 application, which are families of Trojans known to be embedded with spyware functionalities.
