Odd .dll in Windows Task Manager - Virus? Trojan?

Elijah5 · 15-Aug-2004, 04:34 PM #1

The last few times I've started up my computer, I've noticed a strange .dll file running - and my CPU usage spikes to 100% I'm thinking this is a virus, ad-ware, or a Trojan Horse. I have run all my ad-ware, it is up to date - it's removed everything. I have all my Windows 2000 Pro. Security Updates from Microsoft. I have no new programs running that would explain where this came from. The .dll file changes names each time I start-up the computer...usually a combination of letters and numbers.dll.

The last one was: DFEBFE1.dll. Each time the whatever.dll comes up, I type it into Google to search it - and nothing comes up anywere. This is what makes me think this is a Virus/Trojan Horse.

I have run all my spyware/ad-ware removers and they are up-to-date. My Virus Scanner (Norton) is up-to-date and detects no viruses.

I've even run an online scan at housecall.trendmicro.com - NOTHING.

PLEASE HELP!!! Any ideas???

go to http://www.thespykiller.co.uk/files/HijackThis.exe and download 'Hijack This!'.
make sure it is placed into it's own folder, not a temporary folder. Then doubleclick the Hijackthis.exe.
Click the "Scan" button, when the scan is finished the scan button will become "Save Log" click that and save the log.
Go to where you saved the log and click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" then Paste the log back here in a reply.
It will possibly show issues deserving our attention, but most of what it lists will be harmless or even required,
so do NOT fix anything yet.
Someone here will be happy to help you analyze the results.

Here is my Hijack this log (I know a few of these processes are to do with my soundcard, videocard, real player, iomega disk services (zip disk), logitech game profiler, logitech mouse, webcam, cordless keyboard devices and desktop manager and zinio (magazine downloader); the streamloader was JUST PUT ON TODAY and it's to upload a file from a friend of mine so this problem appeared BEFORE that new software was installed....

Again, ad-ware/trojan/virus scans have been done and nothing is detected

Here it is: Please help!!

it looks like it's associated with the so called spyware remover from Bullet proof software

Anything from that company is suspect and I wouldn't rely on it to actually work

My advice is uninstall Bulletproof soft's spyweare remover and then see if the problem goes

Several reports suggest that they install more spyweare than they pretend to remove
