This is an important system process and should not be terminated. NOTE: rundll.exe can also be the LOXOSCAM and Backdoor.SchoolBus.B trojans depending on Operating System and file path; this is always a virus on Windows XP and 2000 operating systems however. Both are a backdoor Trojan that allow hackers to gain access to the computer. These program is a registered security risk and should be removed immediately. If found on your system make sure that you have downloaded the latest update for your antivirus application. Please consult the file path to distinguish between this and the system process.If necessary... Download, install, update and scan with the following: AdAware SE Spybot- Search and Destory CWShredder Perform an online virus scan with one or all of the following: HouseCall Panda ActiveScan RAV AntiVirus Scan Repeat all until cleaned, it may be necessary to repeat and RE-scan with System Restore Disabled in order to get the stubborn junk that hides there.
