Strange Virus: Constantly creating new user accounts
Hello, I was wondering if someone could please help me out on this. I have Windows 7 and I have been current on my updates, I have Eset Smart Security on with strict settings, and my firewall is also enabled on strict settings as well.
However, I noticed that whenever I turn my computer on there's a new user account. It's a standard user account and I keep deleting them once I'm in Windows but they keep going back everytime I restart Windows, and they always have a different name like vfdfaswww (not exactly like this) or something similar and they're always standard accounts.
I've checked my processes and any irregular network activity as well but there's nothing suspicious going on. I don't know what this virus is doing though and if it is keylogging me, is spyware or something, and it's really bothering me.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for reading.
