I have a running process in Task Manager called "System", in
Processlibrary.com it is registered as Net Controller 1.08 trojan, it
will not clear with end process, and it hasn't been found by any of
the Virus Removal tools I have tried, I would be very grateful if
anyone could help, is it a trojan? Any ideas how to remove it?
Thanks in advance
What "virus removal tools" have you tried? Did you do all scans in Safe
Mode? Do you have a full-featured antivirus installed on your hard
drive and is it a current version (not earlier than 2004) with updated
definitions? If not, and in the absence of more information from you,
run TrendMicro's Sysclean in Safe Mode as follows:
TrendMicro's Sysclean is an extensive antivirus tool which has the
advantage of not needing to be installed. It requires two parts - the
scanning engine and the virus pattern files. Delete all Temporary and
Temporary Internet Files before running the program.
1. Create a new folder on your Desktop or the C: drive named something
useful like "Sysclean".
2. Go here and download the two parts of the program to that folder:
http://www.trendmicro.com/download/dcs.asp - Sysclean
http://www.trendmicro.com/download/pattern.asp - virus pattern files
The pattern files will be zipped - extract them with your unzipper (like
WinZip) or if you have XP, you can just open the folder. You need to
put the extracted files in the Sysclean folder you made.
3. Restart your computer in Safe Mode. Get into Safe Mode by repeatedly
tapping the F8 key as the computer is starting up to get to the proper
menu.
4. Go to the Sysclean folder you made and double-click on sysclean.com.
Start the scan. After the scan is finished, look at the log. You may
need to make a note of where any viruses were found if they were not
able to be removed so you can manually delete them.
Then get and install a full-featured av, update its definitions, and do
a thorough scan in Safe Mode.
