Help with tcpsvcs.exe!!!

Delta · 15-04-2005, 01:49 PM

Hi,

I have installed tune-up utilities 2004. After tweaking my pc whenever I connect to internet, a service named tcpsvcs.exe uses 40 - 85% of my processor constantly. It slows down my PC.

I've also set default settings of PC using tune-up utilities, but nothing changes. Can anyone help me with this

Where is the file located? A trojan called EggHead uses the same file name.
More info here

Dowanload CCleaner andi install it. Boot in SAFE mode. Open CCLeaner and click "Options", here UNCHECK the option "Delete only temp files older than 48 hours". Then click "Run Cleaner", and delete any file it finds.

Download TrojanHunter Trial and install it. Run "Full Scan" and delete all the entries it may find.
