help with scan for rootkit

[rokit88]

I did a scan and these three things came up and I'm not sure if I should delete them or not. Maybe someone could help me if possible?

Hello rokit88,

The first items appear to be a Windows Cursor and Outlook Express.



Type: File
Object: Xgh3rtil:HcmyeDvITyfjmkX73PdV:$DATA
Location: C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\
Details: Unknown ADS

Object: Xgh3rtil:HcmyeDvITyfjmkX73PdV:$DATA is located in your Common Files which are shared files for the system.

I'd choose to leave them alone, if there is reason to suspect a problem someone could take a look at the system and advise. :)

What is the operating system please, are there any issues with the computer's performance?

Best regards.

I was just curious as to what these things were that's all. My computer does seem a little sluggish lately but I've checked through spybot and malwarebytes and nod32 and everything checks out fine except for those results so that's what I ask. I'm on a windows xp professional sp3

Hello rokit88,

Thank you for the feedback. :)

As you are on XP which is no longer supported by Microsoft it is wise to be watchful. :kboard:

Best regards.
