All comments about winlog.exe: Ryan It tries to access the internet and it has "log" in its name MidnightTommo Erm - ITS A LOGGER. Just look at the filename. Downloaded it in a ZIP file by accident. Delete!! Nina Virus - service should be winlogon under system32 not winlog. came from some zip file in p2p, immediately tried to dial out and may be responsible for registry mods, it looks malignant and annoying, even tho it's called winlog. all I know. Norton is oblivious to it i think Jonathan Its sending crap over port 8080 to 70.168.71.214 cant open ctr alt del ewan pretty sure it was a virus i got from p2p. remove from startup by run - msconfig Legion211 My computer will no longer boot to windows and gives an error message that winlog.exe cannot be loaded If you know more about winlog.exe, share your knowledge and help other users.
