Possible virus

Hi guys,

I have 3 files, svc_update_client.exe, and svcUpdate.exe in C:\user\..AppData\Roaming\Microsoft folder. Those 2 created today except svchost.exe

They do not show as "Microsoft Corporation" when you hover the mouse over those files. Do they indicate as viruses? I ve checked with avast and it detects nothing but with VirusTotal - Free Online Virus and Malware Scan, 5 different virus checkers detect viruses contain those files.

Also shoudn't svchost.exe, svc_update_client.exe be & svcUpdate.exe in windows/system32 not in C:\user..\..roaming\folder?

Thanks in advance

Mike

If convenient can you zip those files and upload to a file share site then pm me the link to download please?

Hi, they are detected as malware by Spybot program. I have deleted them. I am sorry that I cant send them to you before I delete them. I had a look at your profile photo, "me want malware", maybe you could have a second PC or vmware with no protection at all to collect several malware, trojans etc. Why do you need malwares?

Thank you Dinesh. I didnt use spybot for a month as I should have been. Thank you

Thank you guys for time.

Collecting/running malware samples is a hobby that I enjoy doing.

If the samples aren't detected by Malwarebytes then I post the Virus Total results along with the sample over at their forum.

I employ Sandboxie, Returnil and VM's to run samples and also have several hard drives with XP/Vista/7 installs that I plug in as to what I feel like using.

Images of all hard drives are stored on an external hd as well.

If you do get an undetected sample you can either post in Malwarebytes forum or use their Upload net.
