« on: January 01, 2007, 03:13:18 AM »

Every time I start up my computer I get the followowing errors:-
scvhest.exe and a generic host win32.
When these pop up my computer will not recognise my audio card.
This has stopped me from listening to music watching DVD and watching T.V.
I am running windows xp media edition - sp2.
I have norton anti virus & spybot &trojan hunter and they are all currently up to date and all say that my system is clean. also I have just started to receve iexplor.exe error when i close internet explorer. is this part of the same prob.
appriciate any help to rectify this.
Thanks[/u]

Hi Aaran. Welcome to the 2-Spyware.com forums!

Files scvhest.exe and iexplor.exe are malicious. Safe system files have names svchost.exe and iexplore.exe.

Delete the malicious files immediately! Also, please download the HijackThis program, run a scan and post your log here. You may have more malware.
