I received the following criptic message this morning:
Spybot - Search & Destroy has encountered and terminated a process that is listed
as part of a malicious software.
Process ID 4294841615
Filename MSGSRV32.EXE
Found in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\
Identified as (this was blank)
I opened Explorer and looked at the file. It looked okay so I didn't do anything
with it. I closed Explorer and I selected OK in the SpyBot message and shutdown Win98.
Later I tried to boot into Win98SE it crashed and will not boot even in the Safe
Mode. My system is dual booting with Puppy Linux which will still boot. I cannot
find MSGSRV32.EXE in the C:\ drive when I look for it in Linux.
Would missing MSGSRV32.EXE cause Win98SE not to boot?
Did SpyBot do something with MSGSRV32.EXE? Assuming that SB quaranteened or deleted
the file where would it go and how do I put it back in my Win98 system? How can I
find a new copy of it on the Win98SE disk?
I'm kind of lost and I really don't want to have to reinstall windows at this time!
