These users claim that the com7.exe process is embedded with self-activating functionalities that this malicious program implements upon Windows startup, and these users also state that the system allows the com7.exe process to automatically initialize during system startup and operate as a hidden process during system runtime because of certain keys and entries that this malware is said to be capable of creating and inserting into the Windows System Registry upon its initial placement and activation in the unsecured Windows-based system. These same users also reported that the com7.exe process is capable of exploiting and using the unencrypted TCP/IP network ports of the unprotected Windows-based computer, in order to initiate contact with predesignated remote servers that are managed by the authors of the com7.exe malware. These same users also claim that the com7.exe process, upon establishing data transmission and communication lines with these remote servers, begins to download more malicious applications unto the system from these remote servers.
