Well recently i had a virus in my system....avg removed it

[Kiran.dks]

Yes. Your system was infected with Backdoor.Sdbot.N virus. Although avg has cleaned the virus, but the registry entry is still existing. You should remove it manually.

Download Ccleaner and run the registry cleaner.

Restart system. If problem remains, then
do the following registry editing manually.

>Start
>Run
>type regedit and click ok


Navigate to the key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Run

In the right pane, delete the value:

"Windows Service Host" = "scvhost.exe"

Navigate to the key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\
RunServices

In the right pane, delete the value:

"Windows Service Host" = "scvhost.exe"

Navigate to the key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\
Explorer\Advanced

In the right pane, change the value to:

"Hidden" = "1"

Exit the Registry Editor.

Analysed the log file. The virus left over entry is still existing.

F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=Explorer.exe scvhost.exe

You should remove this entry.

Run HijackThis, checkmark
F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=Explorer.exe scvhost.exe
Click FIX CHECKED.

Restart computer.

[magnet]

aaah thks its gone yup fixed it with hijack this........

thks again reps coming to u kiran and vishal....

btw wht do u do..u look to be an expert in windows reg stuff.....

also after removing all startup entries how was start up showing this trace........????any light on this is really helpfull

[Vishal Gupta]

bcoz there was an entry of the file remaining in startup, thats why windows was giving error at startup even after the removal of virus

[Kiran.dks]

I appreciate your feedback and nice to hear that your problem is sorted out..
scvhost.exe is not a genuine windows process. The actual process is svchost.exe that runs in Windows\system32 folder. So the left over registry entry is creating that error msg. HijackThis report clearly says that the entry still exists. All you needed to do was to remove that entry. That is what I suggested.

[rajasekharan]

And that tells you . . . Install . . . Avast . . . . Its another free scanner and its good .

[shantanu]

first clean your temp and preftech folde and then clean your registry

[rajasekharan]

I dont think he will need to do that mate . . he got it solved . I just gave him a suggestion to use "avast" in future .

[magnet]

i have used avast...it detects avg as a virus sometimes so does nod32

[piyush gupta]

why not try Kasperkey

[Kiran.dks]

The problem is solved already. I don't know why are you people proviking antivirus war again. Too many threads are closed recently for same reason.

Thread reported for closing: Reason problem solved
