Hi All,
Win XP SP2, Abit IS7, tons of freespace, 1G Ram, latest Win updates.
Wife was looking at Amazon.com and system was running at a crawl. I
looked at Task Mgr. and the first entry was <wmiprvsc.exe>, not showing any
cpu usage. As it was a new process to me, I looked it up and found it to be
associated with the Trojan AGOBOT-HZ and/or the worm SDBOT-CB. A thorough
search of the HD and the registry did not show anything and there is nothing
in the startup axis.
I am running Alwil Avast!, Spyware Blaster, Spybot S&D, Hosts file,
Adaware SE, Zone Alarm Pro and behind a router....all scans came up
negative. HJT log shows nothing suspicious, either.
My question: Is it possible the End Task entry was a result of this
Trojan/Worm attempting to enter?? I did notice my cable modem 'cable'
light was flashing during this period (it normally stays steady). A reboot
and reset of the modem and router took care of that. Thoughts???
Thank you,
Heirloom, old and suspicious
