Hi, I joined these forums when I saw how you kindly helped other users with their problems, and i thought that maybe somebody could help me with my problem.
I first noticed when i tried to run C&C Renegade, a game, and I recieved first this message from Renegade, :"Error: loader couldn't initialize service!" , and then the following message from Norton Antivirus 2005, which I use.
"Virus Alert
X High Risk
Norton Antivirus has detected a virus on your computer.
Object Name: C:\WINDOWS\System32\SVKP.sys
Virus Name: Hacktool.Rootkit
Action Taken: Unable to repair this file."
Straight after I closed this window, it was followed by another message:
"Virus Alert
X High Risk
Norton Antivirus has detected a virus on your computer.
Object Name: C:\WINDOWS\System32\SVKP.sys
Virus Name: Hacktool.Rootkit
Action Taken: Access to the file was denied."
Whenever I run Renegade, the same process happens. I have tried taking all the steps to show all hidden files, but I cannot find it, manually or by search. Furthermore, when I ran a Norton Antivirus Search, after having updated virus definitions, It came up with no results, but it still has the same message when I run Renegade. I have since installed Hijack This, and tried a few of the tutorials here, and I cant find any of the files on the HJT log that match the oens on the tutorials. Here is my HJT log:
Please, please help.
