Gryph Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 This says that it could be a virus: http://www.neuber.com/taskmanager/process/rundll32.exe.html Rundll32.exe is a Windows file but a virus could be posing itself as it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Rundll is the program that runs all the control panel thingys. As the name suggests, it allows any dll to run as if it was an exe. This makes it a haven for viruses, trojens and the rest. During normal operation, rundll should not be running. Kill it off. If it comes back you have something bad.
