[Infection] \Winbooterr\svchost.exe
Hi everyone, i was noticing that my PC was slow, so i run an scan with Microsoft Security Essentials. It detected no threats. So i opened msconfig and go to the startup tab. And saw 2 entries for: %WINDIR%\system32\Winbooterr\svchost.exe
So i googled winbooterr and people said it was an virus.
Microsoft Security Essentials seem to didnt detect anything, while its up-to-date
I installed Malware Anti-Bytes after that, and ran an quick-scan. It detected 12 threats instead of 0 on Security Essentials.
All threats are removed, restarted my computer, ran msconfig utility, still 2 entries for Winbooterr!
I heard this virus can eat up your resources, so how can i remove this virus?
Thanks.
