Using Vista (yeah I know...I'm too lazy to reformat right now)
So I got a virus named WNlogon.exe So far the only thing it did was to logon multiple instances of itself, eating up CPU/memory.
I tried deleting it with hijack this, only to have it come back. However, when I went to go to the actual file, this is when it got really weird.
Task manager indicated that it was supposedly at this location c:\Windows\System32\Install\Wnlogon.exe
However, no matter what I used (file explorer, windows search, even dos,) I could not for the life of me find the actual file. I was able to mess with the permissions by locating it through task manager. This finally got it to stop starting up when windows started up. However, I STILL can't get to the actual file itself. (yes, I made hidden files viewable)
Another weird thing is that when I enter c:\Windows\System32\Install\Wnlogon.exe in Chrome/address bar - it shows the file itself.
Any ideas? Suggestions?
