If a "non-Microsoft" .exe file is located in the C:\Windows or C:\Windows\System32 folder, then there is a high risk for a virus, spyware, trojan or worm infection!

| dunno trying to remove no-beba-el-agua |
Pierre | Unlike svchost, the svchosts is malware related. It gathers info from your PC but I'm yet to see it generate traffic in- or outwards. |
annep | From what ive heard this one with an "s" at the end is a threat/virus. The correct microsoft file generichost process is svchost with no "s" on the end. |
| this file is a threat to your internet connection as it opens up loads of connection and clogs up your internet to the point it stops working - deleted and no problems |
Paulo | Seems to open communication port...... doesn't seem armfull but it is not a well intentioned program. It's installed from a MSN messenger update mail.... |
Tim | I serached the text for "http" and this file has the websites http://www.vamper.com and http://www.giddiup.com - both of which are no good marketing sites - Definitely delete it or quarantine it. |
