    msupdte.exe spyware

    Hello, I have a problem with the msupdte.exe spyware. I also tried to remove its entry from hjt but I get an error message saying that, "Windows cannot find 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\msupdte.exe". I also cant find any results of it while searching. Previously while I was using Nod32 my cpu usage was running at 80/90% as it was blocking a Win32 Adware. So I think that due to this I still have some of the remains of the adware. I am also having problem with my network connections. Any advice would be great. Thanks

    easiest way to remove it, especially since its an obvious EXE file.

    boot using a linux CD, or even try safe mode, and rename it to a txt file and move it out of the directory.

    when you reboot, its likely to throw errors that it cant find a startup file, then just find out where its trying to launch from and remove the launcher.

    check: schedualled tasks, msconfig, registry: Run, RunOnce and Shell, autoruns on HDD's.

    and you should be good.
