My svchost.exe file has been infected by the i-worm
plexus.b. I have run various antivirus software but the
file cannot be removed - I get a sahring violation. I am
running Windows 2000. How can I remove the file?
 
Make sure you are using the latest definitions for your virus protection via a
download from your publishers website and also search their website for the virus
name. A quick search of Google shows that it goes by various names. The links below
give some examples of how various vendors suggest removing the infection. Be sure to
keep your virus protection current and scan ALL of your emails as that seems to be a
major way that worm spreads. Make sure you keep your computer current as far as
critical updates from Windows Update. --- Steve
