    rundll32 and svchost using microphone periodically


    Ever since I built my computer MSI B360M Mortar mobo, I've noticed that rundll32 and svchost used my microphone from time to time 1-3 day intervals. I'm sure I haven't downloaded any malware, and when I go to the file location, it brings me to system32, so it wouldn't be a virus. I've read that those two files can be spoofed to cover their tracks, but I'm 99.9% sure that isn't the case.

    Ever since I built my computer (MSI B360M Mortar mobo), I've noticed that rundll32 and svchost used my microphone from time to time (1-3 day intervals). I'm sure I haven't downloaded any malware, and when I go to the file location, it brings me to system32,
    so it wouldn't be a virus. I've read that those two files can be spoofed to cover their tracks, but I'm 99.9% sure that isn't the case.

    Hi OrionK1-

    Thank you for your kind reply and i do apologize for being offline. rundll32 and svchost are components of Windows. A lot of users mistakenly think that those are a virus or malicious files running on the system file.

    Rundll32 is a legitimate windows file that execute .DLL file while the svchost is process name for a services that runs on the background of your Operating system.

    Regards.
