    I am running PC-cillian. It detected the following

    SPYW_ADVKEYLOG.A

    Can anyone give the down and dirty on how to remove it and all its components.

    the info also says svchost would be dumped into my PC. Is this a problem as well

    THANKS in advance for the help

    :confused:

    Yes there is a step by step...
    Well it appears to not have worked...

    The key logger alert still shows on PC-cillian and I still have the svchost problem.

    Don't know what to do.

    Did you run PC-Cillian in safe mode?

    Where is the svchost.exe file located?

    Uhhhhhhh...
    Safemode? How do you run this in safemode.

    svchost is located in the system32 directory. When I run the task manager there are 3 of them running.

    Read message # 2 again on what I said about svchost.exe.


    To boot in safe mode see the below:

    You should probably be looking at our sticky threads too. In particular:

    READ ME FIRST BEFORE ASKING FOR SUPPORT: Basic Spyware, Trojan And Virus Removal

    It also explains safe mode boot and a lot of other stuff.
