lsass.exe Error Message open original image

Right after I installed zonelab 2006 software on my computer, I



rebooted and got the error msg:



"This system is shutting down.....the shutting down was initiated by NT AUTHORITY\\SYSTEM Message The system process 'C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\lsass.exe terminated unexpectedly with status code 0. The system will shut down and restart"



Even though I managed to resolve this situation (please



see below); I still feel the virus is still there



somewhere in my computer.



Please advise as to how I should get rid of whatever



virus that was causing this.



Here is what I did to get rid of this:



  1. cancelled the shutdown (cmd, SHUTDOWN -A)


  1. Restored Windows to the version right befoe I



installed your software.


  1. Reinstalled your software and updated it and run both

virus scan and anti virs scans.....nothing was found!



Thank you



p.s. There has been none of the following files on my pc:



avserve.exe



avserve2.exe



skynetave.exe

for LSASS exploits, I got over 100 hits for worms, trojans and other crap. Might give you an idea of how, and by what, you got attacked.

BTW, if your AV scan is clean, what makes you think that you are still infected? Until one of the gurus weighs in, check these out:

And you might try the alt.comp.virus and/or alt.comp.anti-virus NGs.
