unkilled processes
(6 posts)
Go to the START, then RUN, and enter MSCONFIG. Should see it under the STARTUP tab. If not, then it is one of the SERVICES. Start SERVICES and DISABLE it from there.
A program like Process Explorer from SYSINTERNALS could help you kill it as well.
If you still can't determine how to stop it, what is the name? It might be one that re-starts and difficult to kill?

The process was svchost.exe and the description was Ghostlogger,
It was a startup kind of program which is malicious and is used to monitor me when i startup my machine. I have seen where it is installed it is on my C:\windows\system\svchost.exe under registry hive of HKCU\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run
But inspite of being able to stop the process still i need to remove it entirely from my system particulary through the registry or using command line because im afraid to do something which might destroy is svchost application.
Kindly assist.
