I noticed my computer "thinking" all of the time and when I go into the task manager one of the rundll32.exe tasks is taking up 50% of my processing power. There are 3 of them running.

Here is the HiJackThis log.

Welcome to Safer Networking, I wish to be sure you have viewed and understand this information. "BEFORE you POST" (READ this Procedure before Requesting Assistance)

All advice given is taken at your own risk.
Please make sure you have read and followed these instructions so we are on the same page.

Let me start by saying I see no problems in the HJT log. This does not mean that there is no malware because HJT can not see anything, but let's look at the information you provided me first.

Do you realize what you posted are references to Microsoft Knowledge Base information?
See this: http://support.microsoft.com/ the link to the MKB Search Support is on your right. Here are the numbers you reported.

884933 >>> http://support.microsoft.com/search/default.aspx?query=884933&catalog=LCID%3D1033&spid=&qryWt=&mode=r&cus=False&x=13&y=11

I am not really sure about this report, I do not run Trend, but I have never seen a scan that looks like this. I am guessing, but it may be Trend is reporting critical updates you have not installed.

What does your own resident antivirus program report when you run it? I doubt Trend will provide support since you don't use them, perhaps you should look over this information and then discuss it with Microsoft Technical Support.

If I can do more, please let me know.

Thanks

I run AVG and it's been clean.

My problem might just be the fact that I can't seem to install windows updates.

You can probably close this thread.

That same link to Microsoft Technical Support will lead to help for that issue. It is very rare that Microsoft does not have the answers you need. It's just that getting them can be frustrating at times... be patient. You can email, chat online or call. Here are a couple of links that may help.

I have 3 rundll32.exe's running and one of them is 50% of the CPU all of the time.

Spybot hasn't caught anything. Adaware hasn't caught anything. Windows is updated.

I would appreciate it if you would not start new posts about the same topic. You have not reponded to this topic:

Since 2007-07-17, 09:32 I have ask tashi to combine these posts. I want to know if you have resolved the issues with Windows Updates?

I am not sure what is causing the issue you are reporting but as soon as you tell me what you have done to resolve the issue and tashi has time to combine the posts, I will look at it. I am also interested in any other symptoms beside the rundll32.exe issue using CPU?

Would you please do this: To help you this is the troubleshooting information I am using:
http://windowsxp.mvps.org/rundll32.htm

http://www.c3scripts.com/tutorials/msdos/ <<< tutorial

Open a Command Prompt window and type the following command:

tasklist /m /fi "IMAGENAME eq rundll32.exe" >C:\rundll32.txt

I need the information in the C:\rundll32.txt I can't see how to save it on my computer because I have none running.

Thanks

Sorry about that.

The Windows update problem has been solved and all of the updates are now current.

The only steps that I have taken so far are scans that haven't come up with anything. There are no other symptoms outside of the resource hogging rundll32.

I'll run the cmd when I get back to that computer and post the result.

I appreciate your assistance.

We are getting into areas I know no more about than you. There are the three that are running, I just do not have the time to investigate them all. If you want to use Google to check the .dll's running feel free.
For instance I will do two to show you how:
1) OLEAUT32.dll > http://www.google.com/ = http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=OLEAUT32.dll&btnG=Google+Search
obviously a valid file...The library file ole2.dll, is required by windows and is used when performing OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) operations.

2) nview.dll > http://www.google.com/ = "nview.dll" is part of NVIDIA nView Desktop and Window Manager.

If you scan any .dll that returns no information or returns information indicating malware, then use one or more of these free online sscanners and post the information for me.
http://virusscan.jotti.org/
http://www.kaspersky.com/scanforvirus
http://www.virustotal.com/

I will tell you I can not see anything unusual but this is as I said, way out of my area, and you should probably be in a Windows XP troubleshooting forum, not a malware removal forum. We will pursue this a bit further though.

___________________________________________________

Let's look at a Kasperky scan to see if it shows any malware we can not see with HJT:

Run this online scan using Internet Explorer:
Kaspersky Online Scanner from http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner

Next Click on Launch Kaspersky Online Scanner

You will be prompted to install an ActiveX component from Kaspersky, Click Yes.

* The program will launch and then begin downloading the latest definition files:
* Once the files have been downloaded click on NEXT
* Now click on Scan Settings
* In the scan settings make that the following are selected:
* Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:
* Standard
* Scan Options:
* Scan Archives
* Scan Mail Bases
* Click OK
* Now under select a target to scan:
* Select My Computer
* This will program will start and scan your system.
* The scan will take a while so be patient and let it run.
* Once the scan is complete it will display if your system has been infected.
* Now click on the Save as Text button:
* Save the file to your desktop.

Then post it here.

I would like a look at a free diagnoistic scan, go here: http://www.pcpitstop.com/
Help with results: http://pcpitstop.invisionzone.com/index.php?showforum=6
Tutorial: http://www.pcpitstop.com/techexpress/howto1.asp
Run the free scan, nothing else, refer to the tutorial if you have qwestions. When you finish post a link to the test results for me to view.
Then instructions for doing this are in red near the bottom of the tutorial.

Read this first

C:\WINDOWS\system32\rundll32.exe <<< all three instances seem to be running from the valid System32 folder. I can only see it twice in the HJT log:

1) O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [NvCplDaemon] RUNDLL32.EXE C:\WINDOWS\system32\NvCpl.dll,NvStartup
See this: http://www.castlecops.com/startuplist-2547.html <<< read that information.

2) O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [NvMediaCenter] RUNDLL32.EXE C:\WINDOWS\system32\NvMcTray.dll,NvTaskbarInit
http://www.castlecops.com/startuplist-2559.html << and that information.

According to what I am reading neither of those need to be running, read what it says and see if you concur. Try following the advice, and note the changes you make so you can reverse them if you get a negative reaction. I do not have that program on my computers so I can't try it for you. My guess would be, once to turn those two off, you will only be showing one instance of rundll32.exe running and your cpu usage will go back to normal. Try this first as it might solve your issue without all of the work in the last post.

Thanks

I shut down both processes through the system tray and then shut down the dll through the task list and it has not come back.

How do I permanently shut down those processes. I don't need them.

You need to say what it is you mean, remember I am working with around 100 of these cases at a time.

I shut down both processes through the system tray and then shut down the dll through the task list and it has not come back.
How do I permanently shut down those processes. I don't need them.If you are talking about these two processes:
1) O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [NvCplDaemon] RUNDLL32.EXE C:\WINDOWS\system32\NvCpl.dll,NvStartup
2) O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [NvMediaCenter] RUNDLL32.EXE C:\WINDOWS\system32\NvMcTray.dll,NvTaskbarInit
You can try here first:

http://www.netsquirrel.com/msconfig/msconfig_xp.html
Make sure you read the information in the links from CastleCops.

Also disable the "NVIDIA Driver Helper Service" if enabled as it can cause this entry to be re-enabled on re-boot (note that this service can also cause extreme shutdown delays if enabled - see here)
Disable the Service
Click Start > Run and type services.msc
Scroll down to NVIDIA Driver Helper Service and right click on it.
Click Properties and under Service Status click Stop, then under Startup Type change it to Disabled.

Be careful to make notes about everything you do in the event you need to reverse the changes at some point?

Beyond that, since I have no experience with nvidia I suggest you ask their support your questions.

or perhaps you can ask questions here: http://forums.nvidia.com/

Hope this helps...thanks
