c:\WINNT\system32\scvhost.exe

[Tim]

I've discoverd something unusual in the startup of my
computer today. I'm a Windows XT user and when I startup
my computer, after the Welcome screen appears some
windows pop up with the the window heading
C:\WINNT\system32\scvhost.exc. I then watch what appears
to be a program loading with lines that include "sending
nickname" etc. These windows go away when I click the X
and my computer, otherwise, appears to be running fine.
Does anyone have any ideas what this could be?

it's probably infect virsus, so please use anti virsus to clear it
And one trick is that , the file is running in the background so the file cannot be clean, you need force to close it and then clear it
the virsus seems to auto send many email out, so ask your friend to becareful to your email.

Virus/Trojan attack. Two links to help. It may be some other types.
