Resolved Question

Found New objects at startup - Need help

Sep 18, 2011 1:30AM PDT

Deal Forum Experts,

I found following objects at startup. I am positive that they were not there few weeks ago?

- eciyupunep.dll

- vbimaz

I tried to disable them using msconfig but they seem to reappear.

Operating System - XPpro

Tried using Spybot and ccleaner to disable the startup without success.

Thanks in advance

Dr. Yadu

Looks like malware. Nowadays we have much better tools that Spybot (time has come to dump that).
http://forums.cnet.com/7726-6132_102-5098912.html tells about rkill, MBAM and SAS.

And, just in case MBAM and SAS don't catch it - what is your antivirus?
