Solve : DjRunner & SVC Host? |
Answer» After just getting rid of the GAOBOT virus last week & every other poosible virus i've just found out that these two "djrunner.exe and svchost.exe" didnt disappear.. I was able (it appears) to disinfect a home system (sitting behind a firewall) from djrunner2 by deleting the /bin directory that it was in and deleting a rtdx11??.dat FILE, an exe beginning with cdg... and all relevant registry entries.You can dig through this thread from another forum.. http://computercops.biz/posts30937-30.htmlThanks for the links but i honestly am still lost. Im not sure what to delete, im afraid in case i delete something important..Quote im afraid in case i delete something important Q: What's the worst that could happen? A: Your system blows up and you're horribly burned and scarred, relying on others to care for your basic necessities. Since this is unlikely (you might have to format your computer and start again) I'd say follow the advice in the other thread. You might be able to figure it out and post the fix here for others.Quote Q: What's the worst that could happen? Oh just forget it, if anybody else (dl65, raptor or any of the other members that i have respect for) have an answer of think they can help me, i'd really appreciate it. If not, then so be it. Thanks Quote Svchost.exe is a system function, I donot think you can remove or want to remove that. Raptor, svchost.exe is a type of virus too.. Ive found that out from my searches on google. I came across the post you mentioned when searching for djrunner.exe on google too but im completely lost on what to do! If you are affraid of deleting something that may be important to keep your computer functioning, you can always make a system RESTORE before proceeding.I'd just like to correct myself there, the virus is scvhost.exe.. it's disguised as this so when you look at your processes you will think its svchost.exe The c & v are reversed. Think i've found an answer for this on another forum. If the solution works, ill post it here.I find it strange that Norton does not detect these viruses. Did you update Norton by enabling Live Update and trying to update manually? http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ Perhaps Trend Micro is able to assist you. http://www.grisoft.com/us/us_index.php You may also try AVG Anti-Virus. I have never tried this program, but I have seen forum members recommend it. If you have allready tried these solutions, I SUGGEST you either wait for the (much) more experienced members to come online or contact one of the Anti-virus companies technical support.Quote If you are affraid of deleting something that may be important to keep your computer functioning, you can always make a system restore before proceeding Exactly my point. So you might lose some data.. big deal. In the big scheme of things you'll probably come out ahead with new knowledge. I fondly remember my first format.. I was so scared to type in those words.. Format C:Thanks Raptor, I find it completely strange too why Norton isnt picking this up. The Live Updates are working fine since getting rid of Gaobot and ive done Housecall & AVG on it but not picking up anything either.. Might try Norton's support. Do you know if they give support VIA email? Thanks for your helphttp://www.symantec.com/techsupp/support_options.html Judging from their prices, it would be less costly to format. However, if you really wish to resolve this situation you can try to contact Trend Micro or AVG Technical support. |
