svchost.exe

[iamnotdeadyet]

Hello,

I may have a problem. The thing is that according to hijackthis software svchost.exe is found and active at the c:/program files/internet explorer folder, which is true. As it shouldn't be there, it says that probably it is some sort of malware. I have tried to remove it by means of unlocker + manual deletion or just hijackthis to no avail, unfortunately. What can I do? Any insight into the matter please?

Thanks for the help,

Rod.

Hi iamnotdeadyet

Click here to download HJTInstall.exe

• Save HJTInstall.exe to your desktop.
• Doubleclick on the HJTInstall.exe icon on your desktop.
• By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis .
• Click on Install.
• It will create a HijackThis icon on the desktop.
• Once installed, it will launch Hijackthis.
• Click on the Do a system scan and save a logfile button. It will scan and the log should open in notepad.
• Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log.
• Come back here to this thread and Paste the log in your next reply.
• DO NOT use the AnalyseThis button, its findings are dangerous if misinterpreted.
• DO NOT have Hijackthis fix anything yet. Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.
