Cannot find c:/windows/svchost.exe on startup
Hi,
Recently I have noticed that i was unable to access my c:/ due to the "copy.exe" virus or some sort. I run a Virus scan using NOD32 and done a full spyware scan using Add-aware and Spybot. Removed everything that it picked up, restarted and noticed and error message that popped up twice... "Cannot find c:/windows/svchost.exe ...." I have generated a HIJACKTHIS report and i honestly hope that someone can help me to removing this error message. Another thing is, i noticed that i have no longer have a Task Manager...dunno why that is :s Thanks for all your help in advance:)  Logfile of Trend Micro HijackThis v2.0.2 Scan saved at 23:17:22, on 20/09/2008 Platform: Windows XP SP3 (WinNT 5.01.2600) MSIE: Internet Explorer v7.00 (7.00.6000.16705) Boot mode: Normal Running processes: C:\WINDOWS\System32\smss.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\winlogon.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\services.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\lsass.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\Ati2evxx.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe C:\WINDOWS\System32\svchost.exe C:\Program Files\Lavasoft\Ad-Aware\aawservice.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\spoolsv.exe C:\Program Files\Common Files\EPSON\EBAPI\eEBSVC.exe C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\bin\AppleMobileDeviceService.exe C:\Program Files\Belkin\F5D7051\WLService.exe C:\Program Files\Belkin\F5D7051\WLanCfgG.exe C:\Program Files\Bonjour\mDNSResponder.exe C:\Program Files\TOSHIBA\ConfigFree\CFSvcs.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\cisvc.exe C:\Program Files\ESET\ESET NOD32 Antivirus\ekrn.exe C:\Program Files\Kontiki\KService.exe C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VS7DEBUG\MDM.EXE C:\WINDOWS\system32\PnkBstrA.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\Ati2evxx.exe C:\WINDOWS\Explorer.EXE C:\Program Files\ATI Technologies\ATI Control Panel\atiptaxx.exe C:\Program Files\Synaptics\SynTP\SynTPLpr.exe C:\Program Files\Synaptics\SynTP\SynTPEnh.exe C:\Program Files\Toshiba\Windows Utilities\Hotkey.exe C:\Program Files\Toshiba\ConfigFree\NDSTray.exe C:\Program Files\TOSHIBA\TOSHIBA Zooming Utility\SmoothView.exe C:\Program Files\TOSHIBA\Touch and Launch\PadExe.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\dla\tfswctrl.exe C:\Program Files\SyncroSoft\Pos\H2O\cledx.exe C:\WINDOWS\vsnpstd.exe C:\Program Files\Atheros\ACU.exe C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_07\bin\jusched.exe C:\WINDOWS\PixArt\PAC7311\Monitor.exe C:\Program Files\SimpleCenter\bin\win\sclauncher.exe C:\WINDOWS\vsnp2std.exe C:\Program Files\ESET\ESET NOD32 Antivirus\egui.exe C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunesHelper.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\ctfmon.exe C:\Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync\wcescomm.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe C:\Program Files\Common Files\PCSuite\Services\ServiceLayer.exe C:\PROGRA~1\MI3AA1~1\rapimgr.exe C:\Program Files\iPod\bin\iPodService.exe C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\cidaemon.exe C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis\HijackThis.exe R1 -
