svchost.exe... Virus???
« on: September 14, 2004, 03:59:55 PM »
I ran an online scan on Trend Micro and it found a virus called the WORM_NACHI.DAM and the file was svchost located in the C:/Windows/System32/drivers. then i got another one only in the system32 folder. i checked properties of both and the one dat is not infected had a description of Generic Host Process for Win32 Services, while the one infected had Unknown. should i got ahead and delete this? it does look suspicious being the only .exe file i got in the drivers folder.

Delete or rename it and rerun the virus scan.
