Open windows explorer and delete the Temp:

= Open a Run Command and type in:

On the Registry Editor locate these Keys and Note the entries and Remove it
if you are sure it is infected:

[-]HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run = look
here for the runing processes and remove the suspicious ones.
[-]HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders\
Common Startup = &ltcommon startup full path>

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce= look in the Right
pane/Window for the running process and delete it

HTH.

svhost.exe is a process which is registered as the W32.Mydoom.I@mm
worm. This virus is distributed via the Internet through e-mail and
comes in the form of an e-mail message, in the hopes that you open its
hostile attachment. The worm has its own SMTP engine which means it
gathers E-mails from your local computer and re-distributes itself. In
worst cases this worm can allow attackers to access your computer,
stealing passwords and personal data. This process is a security risk
and should be removed from your system.

Download MULTI_AV.EXE from the URL --
http://www.ik-cs.com/programs/virtools/Multi_AV.exe

To use this utility, perform the following...
Execute; Multi_AV.exe { Note: You must use the default folder C:\AV-CLS }
Choose; Unzip
Choose; Close

Execute; C:\AV-CLS\StartMenu.BAT
{ or Double-click on 'Start Menu' in C:\AV-CLS }

NOTE: You may have to disable your software FireWall or allow WGET.EXE to go through your
FireWall to allow it to download the needed AV vendor related files.

C:\AV-CLS\StartMenu.BAT -- { or Double-click on 'Start Menu' in C:\AV-CLS}
This will bring up the initial menu of choices and should be executed in Normal Mode.
This way all the components can be downloaded from each AV vendor's web site.
The choices are; Sophos, Trend, McAfee, Kaspersky, Exit this menu and Reboot the PC.

You can choose to go to each menu item and just download the needed files or you can
download the files and perform a scan in Normal Mode. Once you have downloaded the files
needed for each scanner you want to use, you should reboot the PC into Safe Mode [F8 key
during boot] and re-run the menu again and choose which scanner you want to run in Safe
Mode. It is suggested to run the scanners in both Safe Mode and Normal Mode.

When the menu is displayed hitting 'H' or 'h' will bring up a more comprehensive PDF help
file. http://www.ik-cs.com/multi-av.htm
