Answer» Ive found this program RUNNING on my computer under svchost.exe , and it seem to me that there were tomany programs running under svchost its USING more than 20 megs of ram.
I google'd it to see if it was a bad, and the first few results said it was a Trojan downloader, but i cant seem to get rid of it and I'm not sure if it is bad or not.
Ive run AVG , spybot , Adaware, and CCleaner none of which pick it up as being anything, has any one else seen this program before?
I think it might just be part of Diskmanager if its not a virusDo a search open Explorer and use the file search utility to look for this. If it is automatically started when you boot your computer, then click start, goto run, and type 'msconfig' and click the startup tab and then look for the program and uncheck.I dose automatically start when i start my computer , but its not in any of the start up areas that i know off.
it is not shown as a SERVICE or as a process in task manager.
i did find the EXE its in the System 32 folder, should i simply delete it in safe mode?http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/startups/dmserver.exe-1381.htmlSERVER not found Firefox can't find the server at www.bleepingcomputer.com.It would appear that that web site is down, is it generally a reliable site for process information,
i don't generally have much problem with "Mal Ware" on my PC , so i don't have much experience with it other than the common utilitiesThat file could also be part of Trendmicro, have you ever had it installed? http://esupport.trendmicro.com/support/viewxml.do?ContentID=en-121747
Panda Activescan Ewido/AVG Online ScanNope i don't think so.
i hate it when i cant find out when and ware a program thats running on my computer came from , its very annoying.
Ive not run those online scans yet , but ill GIVE them a lash now i try to avoid installing strange things.
Thank you all for you suggestions, i think ill just delete the program and see what happens ^.^, there are a few other things running under svchost that I'm not to sure about. i only found these programs because im trying to get better performance out of my PC and it seemed to me that it was using too much ramQuote i think ill just delete the program and see what happens
How about a HJT log?Well panda didn't pick up ant thing that i didn't expect, and it showed Wget as a hacker tool. and a few tracking cookies
Any way Ive attached my hijack this log, i didn't notice any thing very strange in it.Still run Ewido/AVG.For some strange reason when I run the online Ewido Scan IE closes half way trough, with no error message, it just diesDownload the Ewido/AVG Antispyware free program, install it, update it & run it in safe mode. See if that turns anything up. You could look at Autoruns from www.sysinternals.com too. Let it load then set the view to 'hide signed microsoft entries', hit the refresh button & see what you can.
