    I think I found a dangerous malware.


    I was looking in task manager and found something called isass and i looked it up and i found a site that said its a virus trying to hide itself as lsass and that if it is in the windows system 32 file location then it has a 78% danger rating and only a few things about it match what it shows on the site.

    What do i do?

    :)

    Malware removal


    Understood, OldMike. I will keep your suggestion in mind. I always appreciate suggestions from those who know more than I do. I think the Malware did do more than one scan, because I had to approve removal of what it found twice. I don't see Windows Defender on the list of programs. I think it was on there before they redid the software. Pluto TV also disappeared.

    I think I found a dangerous malware.

    Did our Epson printer get hacked?

    Another question, is this on a home network or a work network? The steps @eidairaman1 listed are always a good first step. If this is on a work network you manage, I'd be much more concerned than the home one. It is possible someone is screwing with you, but malware could also be the culprit.
