<0> Let me explain myself
<0> I downloaded a torrent
<1> within the .iso ?
<0> One minute
<0> Please
<1> sure
<2> lol
<0> I download a torrent and it came with three .iso files. But Windows alows me to use winrar to unrar them, I do that and I have a file with regular autorun.mpq files and there is a seperate file, iso, that is a crack, how would I burn the program so that it works. Because as it is, it doesn't detect a CD in the CD drive
<3> i got a problem, i cant use my internet explorer without my computer freezing
<0> Skello...
<1> sayed just a sec
<0> kk
<3> and i have a bad feeling svchost.exe is running on my computer
<0> what is svchost.exe ?
<3> apparently its a virus
<4> lol
<0> Hm
<0> Sorry
<0> I'm new to Windows.
<3> but anyone know what i can do
<3> because i cant even go to any website now
<1> Stricklan svchost.exe is a legit Windows file, actually a very important and critical one
<3> alright
<1> hold on
<1> not done yet
<3> nevermind then haha
<4> sayed, Read more about svchost.exe here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314056
<1> it runs multiple times each time loading certain services
<1> HOWEVER
<1> this is the file located in c:\windows\system32\svchost.exe
<1> some viruses indeed make use of it's importance
<1> and use it's name to hide and tricking the users in not killing the process
<5> as c:\windows\svchost.exe, c:\windows\system\svchost.exe
<3> so those i should delete though
<1> however these malicious components named as svchost.exe can't be in system32
<1> because that's where the legit one is
<1> i suggest getting Proces***plorer
<1> http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/utilities/Proces***plorer.mspx
<1> free utility
<1> that lists all the running processes
<1> check all svchost.exe instances
<1> and check for it's path
<1> to see where it runs from
<1> if it doesn't run from system32
<1> then you should get worried
<1> the usual task manager that comes in Windows doesn't show the path of the files being ran
<5> omg, that new homepage of m$ sux
<3> how can i tell then where the path is being run from if the task manager doesnt show
<5> sayed: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/howtobuy/default.mspx
<3> and i cant open websites remember
<1> Stricklan you can't open websites ?
<1> Stricklan then i suggest visiting a channel like #dmsetup to get an inspection
<3> my computer freezes up everytime i do
<0> Znarezz Thanks
<1> they deal with specialised antivirus help
<1> sayed ok with the .iso thing
<1> you said you have three .iso files ?
<5> Stefan]: are you unable to open any websites, or just some spesific?
<3> my antivirus isnt picking up any more virus
<3> es
<5> Stricklan, im eant
<5> Try launch Msinfo32, by type: /run cmd /c msinfo32
<3> ZnarreZ every time i go to open up microsoft internet explorer my computer freezes
<3> and my CPU Usage keeps fluctuating from 2% up to as high as 99%
<5> then go to "software env", then to "running task"
<5> hmmmm... might an idea to look at the netstats too, which you can do by type: /run cmd
<5> then in command prompt, you type: netstat -aon
<5> 120 000 viruses daily can't be wrong... Choose Windows you too :=)
<3> should i wait til after my virus scan finishes running im running it again
<6> mmm and remember to turn of system restore on virus scan
<5> sure, but i doubt it will be able to detect anything more then last time you runned it
<6> AV can't remove virus in the redemption zone
<3> there are 6 svchost.exe running right now in my task manager
<3> alright i think i found some malicious svchost.exe files because they arent in system32
<3> should i delete them?
<6> nope Stricklan.. in the cmd promt type : Tasklist /FI "PID eq processID"
<6> that should identify which process name that uses the svchost for a service
<3> okay
<3> it says c:\windows\system32\tasklist.com is not valid
<6> ahh sorry, I am brainlagged
<6> just : tasklist /svc
<3> same thing
<3> i get the same prompt
<6> xp home?
<3> ya
<6> ahh thats why
<6> It misses some great features
<3> hmm this is very frustrating
<3> i dont know what to do haha
<6> I can only think of a couple of things.. but its on your own risk
<3> what are those?
<6> there should be a tool called sfc .. even in xp home (system file checker)
<3> okay how do i access that
<6> It will replace broken system files and thereby repair it self sorta speaking
<6> it can be executed in a cmd promt : sfc /scannow
<3> ok
<3> doing thatnow
<6> great
<3> what will this do?
<6> well, I told you above
<6> But I will explain again if you like. It will replace the windows systems files that does not match original microsoft files
<6> More specific files in system32 og system .. dll, ocx etc
<6> files critical for the system to run without errors
<6> ohh great..
<1> forgot to mention he needs the setup disc too :D
<6> I always love when people asks a question and leaves :)
<1> maybe he left because he did the command
<6> well, I ***ume he is using a original xp
<1> doing it requires reboot
<6> no one would use a hacked home edition
<6> haha yes it requires reboot, it however does not force reboot.
<1> i know, but maybe he accepted :P
<1> either way, we'll see if he comes back or not
<1> i suggested to him to go on #dmsetup and get an inspection done
<1> to see if he has any infection first
<1> as sfc will only check for system files and repair them
<1> not clean his infections
<1> and if he has one that affects system files
<1> it will affect them again
<1> after the sfc replaces them
<6> indeed. #dmsetup would have been wise. Anyhow, if he managed to clean it out everything should be back in order again
<6> virus is always funny
<6> nighters
