OK lets start with OTL initially

Download OTL  to your Desktop
Secondary link
  • Double click on the icon to run it. Make sure all other windows are closed and to let it run uninterrupted.


  • Select All Users
  • Under the Custom Scan box paste this in
netsvcs
BASESERVICES
%SYSTEMDRIVE%\*.exe
/md5start
services.*
explorer.exe
winlogon.exe
Userinit.exe
svchost.exe
winsock.*
/md5stop
CREATERESTOREPOINT


  • Click the Run Scan button. Do not change any settings unless otherwise told to do so. The scan wont take long.
    • When the scan completes, it will open two notepad windows. OTL.Txt and Extras.Txt. These are saved in the same location as OTL.
    • Post  both logs

I've just noticed the laptop being real slow no matter what I'm doing on it.  Other then that I haven't seen any other problems.

Clear Cache/Temp Files
Download TFC by OldTimer to your desktop
  • Please double-click TFC.exe to run it. (Note: If you are running on Vista, right-click on the file and choose Run As Administrator).
  • It will close all programs when run, so make sure you have saved all your work before you begin.
  • Click the Start button to begin the process. Depending on how often you clean temp files, execution time should be anywhere from a few seconds to a minute or two.  Let it run uninterrupted to completion.
  • Once it's finished it should reboot your machine. If it does not, please manually reboot the machine yourself to ensure a complete clean.

I scanned the file again today like you asked of me and the result still read "MCSysUtil.dll   Win32:Injector - AZQ [Trj]".  I also ran the program TFC, so I'll let you know if I start noticing a difference in my system.  Thanks for your assistance as usual, essexboy.

Yes sir.  At first it told me it couldn't be moved to the chest, deleted, or fixed, but later when I opened Avast I found it in there.

Leave it there for now and check it again in a bout a weeks time

Although metamail appears to be a Linux programme

I ran a scan on the file today and it came back with "MCSysUtil -no virus-".  I'm assuming that means it's safe, so should I restore the file?
