H_KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/SVKP/Enum/0
H_KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/SVKP/Enum/count
H_KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/SVKP/Enum/nextinstance

within the folder there is the following entries

Name Type Data
0 REG_SZ Root\LEGACY_SVKP\0000
Count REG_DWORD 0x00000001 (1)
nextinstance REG_DWORD 0x00000001 (1)


Hope this helps

Boot into safe mode, under your normal user name(NOT THE ADMINISTRATOR ACCOUNT). See how HERE.

In Windows Explorer, turn on "Show all files and folders, including hidden and system". See how HERE.

Click start/run and type regedit into the runbox and press the enter key.

Navigate to H_KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/SVKP and delete it.

Close reg edit.

Go to C:\windows\system32\SVKP.sys and delete the bold file if there.

Reboot into normal mode and rehide your protected OS files.

Let me know the results.

Thanks Howard

That seems to have done the trick.
There was no sign of SVKP.sys in C:
But deleting the SVKP folder in registry looks to have worked
I even had turned my system restore back on and created a restore point before removing the registry folder (just in case for the first attempt)
There's no sign of it.

Thanks a million

That`s great news.

If you have any further virus/spyware problems, please post in this thread.
