    "Generic host Process for win 32 services"

    See the title? Every time I use my computer on the internet, after some random amount of time my computer gives me that message and when it does my computer goes nuts. It started when my computer was reading something like "Trojan virus small" or just "Trojan generic" or whatever, finding in through my AVG.

    Now it's giving me the impression every time I see that message it means someone is now screwing with my computer via internet. Can anyone tell me how to clean this up?

    (Know that my computer knowledge is dead 0 so if you want to reply, that's great but if you use any technical terms I may not understand.)

    Please download and install the latest version of HijackThis v2.0.2:

    CLICK HERE to download the HijackThis Installer:TrendSecure | Download TrendMicro HijackThis

    1. Save HJTInstall.exe to your desktop.
    2. Double-click on HJTInstall.exe to run the program.
    3. By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis.
    4. Accept the license agreement by clicking the "I Accept" button.
    5. Click on the "Do a system scan and save a log file" button. It will scan and then ask you to save the log.
    6. Click "Save log" to save the log file and then the log will open in Notepad.
    7. Click on "Edit -> Select All" then click on "Edit -> Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log.
    8. Come back here to this thread and paste the log in your next reply.
    9. Do NOT have HijackThis fix anything yet! Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.


    And...



    Open Hijackthis.

    Click the "Open the Misc Tools" section Button.

    Click the "Open Uninstall Manager" Button.

    Click the "Save list..." Button.

    Save it to your desktop. Copy and paste the contents into your reply.

    Thanks

    I don't see "save log" anywhere, instead what I see is the following:
    "Scan" "Fix checked" "Info on selected items..." "Analyze this" "Main Menu" "info..." "config..." "add checked to ignore list" and then the log file in the note pad shows up....I'll still copy the reply though.

    I hope your not gonna hack me with the info I just gave you, it's a little suspicious having post my computer information like this!

    You can always take it to a shop some where, this is normal all over the internet to post such information to fix, if we cannot see it we cannot fix it.

    If you want I will delete this whole thread.

    I see, lol, your really easily offended. All I was saying is that it's easy to take advantage of the fact that I don't know anything about computers so anyone could tell me "Oh don't worry, this is normal." But I have no way of knowing if it's true, and the fact that the info I gave ya looked important so I feel vulnerable.

    I didn't say you where a hacker, I only asked that you don't hack me, this way it's more like im asking a favor rather than tossing accusations.
