More Information
Troj/Exchan-Gen is a family of Trojans for the Windows platform.
Members of Troj/Exchan-Gen usually attempt to copy themselves to the Windows system folder, often with a filename of CbEvtSvc.exe or CcEvtSvc.exe, and create a service with the same name to run this file automatically on startup, creating registry entries at the following location:
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\<Trojan filename>
Members of Troj/Exchan-Gen typically attempt to connect to a remote website and may download and execute further files from there.
Some members of Troj/Exchan-Gen drop a file to the Windows system folder, often with a filename of Apwcmdnt.dll. This file is also detected as Troj/Exchan-Gen.
