Virus I Think - Help Required
4 Answers
This afternoon my computer keeps coming up with a message saying "This system is shutting down. please save all work in progress and log off. Any unsaved changes will be lost. This shutdown was initiated by NT Authority/System"
After searching on the net, it is clearly caused by some kind of virus. Aparantly it is causing lsass.exe to terminate, which then triggers the shutdown. A virus scan has not found any virus's, however one thing was identified, which said:
File: ntoskrnl.exe
Result/Infection: Change
Path: C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntoskrnl.exe
It didn't identify this as a virus, but there's something about it not right I assume.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated....I really don't know what to do/how to get rid of it.
Thanks very much!
