HiJackThis Error With Avast!
« on: June 14, 2005, 07:32:40 AM »
O23 - Service: avast! Mail Scanner - Unknown owner - C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast4\ashMaiSv.exe" /service (file missing)
   
Unnecessarily   

These entries shows all services which are not from Microsoft. Often malware is starting as a systemservice and it's not easy to detect it.   Unknown service. (service (file missing))

Unnecessary (deactivated) entry that can be fixed.

This is a problem with HJT just ignore  O23 references to Avast as HJT just does not recognize at this point in

time I guess it will be rectified in the future there is no need to repair or take any action

 :) Just because something shows up on a HijackThis log does
     NOT mean it needs to be "fixed" ; that why there are
     numerous forums with HijackThis experts to guide those
     who submit the logs for analysis .
