    Anyone know if there is a fix for this annoying winlogin.exe error I'm getting on one of my computers? Its almost as though my RAM is dying...but that leads me to believe that I'm the victim of a nasty bug. :(

    The problem is that winlogin.exe is always running. Anyone got a thought on this? :confused:

    Any help is good help!

    winlogin.exe is a blaster virus file but winlogon is a windows file can you confirm that it is winlogin.exe.

    Do you have any of these files Msblast.exe, Nstask32.exe, Penis32.exe, Teekids.exe, Winlogin.exe, Win32sockdrv.dll, or Yuetyutr.dll in the Windows\System32 folder.If so you have a really nasty virus.
    D3m3nt3d check this out http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=826955 the blaster and RANDEX.E Virus are the same worm.

    Peer,

    If you are still following this thread you need to run the steps in the link that D3m3nt3d gave you in message # 9. After that, tells us where things stand.

    I had a back up of this comp from a few days ago. I took the easy way out and reformatted the computer. Thanks for the help ya'll! I know where to look in case of future problems ;)
