    Is this a genuine file or malware ?


    Hi,

    I noticed that my processor was working at 100% all the time.
    When i looked to see what was using al of the processor i found a process running named: g67b0.tmp.exe
    Google came with no results for this so i wondered if it is malware ?
    I closed the process and the processor came down to 40%.
    Also i noticed nothing not working after closing the process.
    I haven't rebooted the pc, but i asume the process wil start again on reboot..
    Anyone has any knowledge about this ?
    Thanks,

    Luc

    :)

    What is unknown account? Is this malware or a hacker

    I have run a security scan with ESET antivirus

    It says my computer is clean

    Would it be safe to delete the account? If so how do I do that?

    Hi,

    Sorry for the delay in replying.

    Your efforts to work on this issue is very much appreciated.

    Follow these steps to check if that helps:


    • Press Windows + X keys on the keyboard, select the control panel.

    • Click on User accounts.

    • Click on Manage other account.

    • Enter the password for the administrator account if prompted.

    • Click on the account which you want to delete (Microsoft admin account).

    • Click on Delete the account.

    • Click on Delete the files.

    Important: You must be signed in as an administrator to be able to delete a user account. You will not be able to delete a user account that is currently signed in. You will need to sign out the user first. Be sure to always have at least one
    enabled administrator account on the PC to avoid not being able to perform actions that require administrator rights.

    Keep us informed to help you further.

    Hi,
    It was a process...
    A filesearch on all my drives found nothing.
    And there's no service running with that name.

    After a wider search i found in windows/temp this file.
    I renamed the extention to .EX- so i hope it won't start at reboot.
    When i uploaded it to Virustotal it had a score of 14/64.
    So i suspect it not to be good...

    Google comes up with a lot of results for <lots of other random strings>.tmp.exe and all of them seem malign. A scan with something like AdwCleaner would seem to be a good idea.

    Hi,

    When i download adwcleaner and try to install it my system tells me that the signature is missing or corrupt and the manufacturer is blocked.
    I thought it may be better to download it using another browser bud IE, Chrome and Firefox give the same result .
    Any idea how to go on now ?

    If you downloaded AdwCleaner from the link I gave that should not happen. If you downloaded it from elsewhere, try again with the link I gave. It doesn't require installing, you just download it and run it. If it still doesn't run, most likely malware is blocking you from running it. Run Rkill first which will try to stop any malware processes that are blocking you. Then, without restarting, run AdwCleaner.

    Download RKill

    I did download from the link in your message.
    Now i runned Rkill and after finishing it told me that i should be able to use the normal programs...
    Then i tryed again to download and install AdwCleaner .
    It still won't install because my system says the signature is corrupt or not valid.

    Try this it doesnt fix anything but tells us whats the problem is so we can deal with it be sure to post BOTH results

    Please download and save FRST 64bit or FRST 32 bit to your Desktop.

    http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/farbar/FRST.exe

    http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/farbar/FRST64.exe

    Right click to run as administrator (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File). When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
    Make sure that Addition option is checked.
    Press Scan button.
    It will produce a log called FRST.txt in the same directory the tool is run from.
    Please copy and paste log back .
    The first time the tool is run it generates another log (Addition.txt - also located in the same directory as FRST.exe/FRST64.exe).
