This process should not be removed to ensure that your system security is not breached  See also: Link   marko129 Computer Associates eTrust EZ Antivirus Component   xpsp2 Part of Vet AV   it is installed when you install yahoo antivirus   roj I have CA's EZ Antivirus & assume this is one of their programs   adf3 Part of Computer Associates eTrust EZ Antivirus Component   Zachary Taylor its a part of ca trust security center not dangerous at all   ian It is apparently a part of Computer Associates EZ Antivirus - part of Zone Alarm's Internet Security Suite. Even though I chose not to install the Anti Virus, VET Message installed and is running on its own. Also see CAISafe - another component of EZ Antivirus which also installed on its own and is now running on my system. I am going to disable them both and see if I really dont need them as I am already running AV software (that i paid for).   RenX Is a part of the EZ Antivirus software   xtega This is part of CA EZ Trust Antivirus software   Howard ca epired on my laptop and ichoose not to renew it but the notice to renew constantly pops up on my screen and nothing I have tried will get rid of it so I call it a virus   Sircher I never installed any anti-virus software or have even heard of CA AV, so I don't know where this came from. It also consistently opened windows alerting me to a path that doesn't exist being a virus. I may have gotten a Trojan, but until I can prove that, I'm going to classify this process as a virus.   Sam If you know more about vetmsg.exe, share your knowledge and help other users.
