Answer» hi there
i've found isass.exe in my running processes, not sure what to do with it.
the COMPUTER performance wise.. is running slow. but it is a old computer handed down to me. and my knowledge of computers is not great - so i'm not sure how fast it should be runing anyway.. i'll only be using it for web browsing. so my only concern is that it is secure for me to use. but any help would be appreciated
my computer:
windows xp home edition
1.80GHz 224MB ram
running ZoneAlarm and AVG free edition, up to date (nothing bad detected so far)

thanks broni
have not gone through those steps yet, have been a bit busy
but i just came back becuase i had an idea to use my web browser and search the word 'Lsass.exe' on this page
and Lsass apears in my HJT log
so i'm guessing it's all legit and fine like you say
although i don't understand HJT logs, so i was just wondering if there was anything there that shouldn't be there
the computer is new to me like i say.
but it used(before i reformated) to have a lot of problems and was infected with a virus or two.
i'm guessing all is fine now?
sorry for sounding a bit like a time waster. it's just this computer is on a network with anouther so was just wondering if this one was STILL had it's virus.
if someone doesn't mind giving my HJT log a quick look over that would be good, if not no prob.
P.S. are the logs just a matter of copying and pasting each part into a search engine? or is there more to it? i understand the running processes part, but not the rest of it. would be better if could do it..
thanksI can't comment, or ADVICE, unless I see those three logs.Hi there, I wish everyone a happy new year.
I am experiencing something rather very strange, and I was wondering if anyone can help me. I really do not know what to do. I have windows XP. and I am experiencing the virus (virus.win32.xorer.ee) which has three files which are critical. (Isass.exe) + (smss.exe) + (ckvol.dll). I can not install or run any anti-virus programs. My PC wont let me. I can not run in safe mode. I can not delete those items. so basically, this thing is in total control of my PC. So please. if anyone can help me here i would really aperciate it. Thank you.crazysoccerboy
