    Hello sarsjits and welcome to Seven Forums.

    According to Webroot Prevx, this is probably malware.

    MSIXTH32.DLL, Prevx

    I suggest running a full scan with your antivirus suite of choice. Since no antimalware product is 100% effective 100% of the time, I'd make sure your AV didn't miss something by running a couple of free on-demand scanners. I'd start with Malwarebytes and then move on to one or more of these:

    Windows Defender Offline (not to be confused with Windows Defender!) | Superantispyware | Hitman Pro | ESET | Comodo Cleaning Essentials

    Please post back with the results of the scans. Note: some scans can take over an hour so be patient.

    You can use McAfee as your first scan if that's what's on your computer. But I would still recommend using at least a couple more on-demand scanners starting with Malwarebytes. As I said, no product is 100% effective 100% of the time. If there was such a product we'd all be using it. :)

    If McAfee doesn't find any problems, definitely try the on-demand scanners. If McAfee DOES find problems, definitely use a couple of the on-demand scanners to make sure McAfee didn't miss something.
