Windows 10: Why is it on my PC - FS.dll and antivirus register it as malware?

Alright, so, I have a few questions. I'm on Windows 7, and I have a multitude of malware scanners, such as Malware Bytes, Avast, and Hitman Pro, and a few browser/startup scanners.


Recently, Hitman Pro has discovered three .dll files under the name FS.dll and it is categorized as malware. As Hitman seems to be reliable but a touchy scanner, I scanned with Avast and Malware Bytes and it found zero results, even scanning the direct .dll files, which, by the way, are under the directory: C:\Users\My PC Username\AppData\Local\Temp, and then under three files:

1. HYDD88C.tmp.1487195022
2. HYD5366.tmp.1487195971
3. HYD1898.tmp.1489503292

These folders seem to be related to utorrent, which I have used in the past. It does not explain the recent rise of these .dll files are

And under each of those files, they have a directory, where the .dll files can be found going through \HTA\3rdparty\ on each. Upon doing so, I can find two files in each:

• The FS.dll file
• and an .ocx ActiveX Control file, which, to be honest, I am not sure what it is, but it isn't registered as malware by my scanners.

I have looked these up on the web, with no results on file info, saying they are still gathering info on them, or are not sure what they are. I have scanned these with VirusTotal, and a ratio of about 14/64 are scanned as viruses.


I am tempted to delete them, as any person would, but I cannot back my computer up at the moment. I don't know much about these directories, and I am tempted to delete the .dll and .ocx in each file.


I'm a fair noob when it comes to this stuff, and I need someone to describe what these files are, what the folders are, and what I should delete if any, and how to safely remove them from my computer.

DLL Module TODGUB6.dll is misssing

Hi Stefan,

Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community.

Sometimes scanning your PC for virus/malware infection once will not get detected. Scan your PC twice for detecting malware or virus attack by running the anti-virus software and check if the issue is resolved.

If the issue persist re-register the .dll files by following the steps below and check if you are facing similar issue.

Dynamic link library (DLL) is a collection of small programs, which can be called upon when needed by the executable program (EXE) that is running. When one of the DLL file is corrupted, then executable program
will fail to perform properly. So we need to re-register the DLL files.

• Press Windows key + X and select Command Prompt(Admin).
• At the command prompt, type the commands mentioned below and press
  Enter after each command-

regsvr32 ntdll.dll /s

regsvr32 msdxm.ocx /s

regsvr32 dxmasf.dll /s

regsvr32 wmp.dll /s

regsvr32 wmpdxm.dll /s

• After registering DLL files restart the computer and check if the changes are effective.
  

Write back to us with the status of the issue for further assistance. Your reply is important for us to ensure we assist you accordingly.

Thank you.

 

Registering a dll

Hi Donald,





There are a lot of factors for this matter. to isolate the issue, we have some questions for you:

  What application does the .dll belongs to?

  Have you tried uninstalling/reinstalling the software?
  
• 
  Aside from downloading and installing the .dll file, what other troubleshooting steps have you done so far?
  

We'll be waiting for your response.
