Title: Error regarding svchost.exe
Post by: Guilded_Fear on January 24, 2010, 09:21:47 PM
Hey guys, me again. Got a new issue. Been workin on a computer. No viruses or anything visible. Did quite a few scans with misc. programs such as Adaware, Spybot and AVG. Everything checks out. However, I keep getting this issue when I do any task.

AXWIN Frame Window: svchost.exe - Application Error
The instruction at "0x0274f7a0" referenced memory at "same address". The memory could not be "written".

Click okay to terminate the program
Click cancel to debug the program

Either answer is a no go of course considering svchost is a must have process by Windows. If I click okay, it gives a 1 minute shutdown due to the DCOM Server Process Launcher terminating unexpectedly. If I click cancel to attempt a debug. System hangs so badly and nothing works anymore! Now I gotta postpone returning this computer for another day. Included I have the error in a jpeg in which ive described.

Have you tried Malwarebytes? I know you said you've tried several programs but Malwarebytes seems to be the best at finding the Internet Security 2010 virus which is possibly causing this error message.

Yes Ive used it on this computer a few times. What would it hurt to try once more? Ill do an overnight scan. In the mean time, lets set a "what if" scenario. If Maleware comes back with nothing, whats my next step. Keep in mind that the last thing I want to do to this computer (since its not my own) is to reinstall Windows.

If it is the Internet Security 2010 virus I think a Quick Scan with Malwarebytes will find it. It could take a full scan though. It may not even be a virus, that's my only suggestion though. Someone else may come up with something else.

Okay my problem was that I didnt have an updated version of Malewarebytes. I scanned it multiple times and it found a few traces in registry and what not. I even noticed that with Malewarebytes, it keeps constantly blocking access to malicious IPs pretty much nonstop. Is that a sign that the infection is still in the computer? I may have to do a Hijack This log so someone here can view it. Im still getting the AXWIN error and I dont understand why. Lemme post a log.

K thx Patio. I think I found my issue (hopefully) by use of the Hijack this tool from this site.
