I have run a virus scan using Norton (with updated
definitions), and it did not detect anything.
I did have a Welchia worm a few weeks back, but I removed
it (may not have completely been removed), or there is a
trace of a virus running as part of the background
processes, (in the form of that SVCHOST.EXE file that
prompts the NT AUTHORITIES shut down, if this process is
closed).
When I try and close this background file ("End Task"),
it causes my computer to shut down. This is not normal,
bearing in mind that no virus has been detected. It's
hidden in the registry! I tried remastering my computer,
and it is still running in the background processes (in
the form of one of the SVCHOST.EXE files.
How could I remove the bad part of the SVCHOST.EXE file?
I even ran Anti-Trojan 5.0, and it did not detect
anything either. I'm totally confused. I would
appreciate any help.
I would like to think it is not a virus, but why does
that shut down prompt pop-up when I close this
SVCHOST.EXE file.
Thank you
