Process ### - nmvrdnvc.exe

[Guest]

On startup my computer automatically tries to connect to the internet. My
security program tells me that Process #### (the number changes) is
responsible and that this is connected to nmvrdnvc.exe - part of system 32.
How can I stop this happening?

There are no hits on this in google which is suspicious and suggests
some sort of malware.

Run these programs. After installing update them, then boot into safe
mode and run them. You should update and run them weekly.

For viruses, start with Trend Micro’s Sysclean. Download it and the
signature file. Turn off system restore, boot into safe mode and run
sysclean. Boot back into normal mode and run a full AV scan with your
normal AV program. Then turn system restore back on.

addition to your regular up to date AV program:
