Hi

My F-secure av tells me that my laptop (Windows 98) has a file
C:\windows\system\svcpack.exe infected with Trojan.Win32.Fakesvc.c
But it won't disinfect, delete or rename the file.
Please can anyone tell me how I get rid of this thing? And is svcpack.exe a
real windows system file or is it created by the trojan?

Thanks in advance

Rod
 
rodilyn,

FYI: "svcpack" is not a virus, rather a (Adult Related) trojan ...

Shows up as a "Running Process"
1) C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\SVCPACK.EXE
2) win.ini: run=C:\WINDOWS\svcpack.exe
3) HKLM\..\RunServices: [SVC Service] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\svcpack.exe
