So I just recently had problem with my internet... I called to that place where my internet is hosted and they said that I cant use my internet because there is coming some sort of foreign country signals from my computer - so Its closed from my main computer now. Any idea what this virus this may be?

Also I recently did rootkin scan and it found some weird registry keys. Let me copypaste:

HKLM/system/currentcontrolset/services//gupdate
HKLM/system/currentcontrolset/services//gupdate
HKLM/system/controlset002/services//gupdate
HKLM/system/controlset002/services//gupdate
HKLM/system/controlset001/services//gupdate
HKLM/system/controlset001/services//gupdate

so these are all of them, I was wondering - should I delete these or are these necessary to make my computer run...?

I hope this thread is not congusing, I have been doing long work day - so I am little bit tired when Im writing this :P

gupdate appears to be the Google Update Service.

No, there are many possible scenarios. :)

Is this a personal computer, how many computers are networked?

Also, please list:


The operating system.
All security programs installed.
Any issues with the computer's performance and when they started.


Best regards.
