when u run that file once it copied some files to ur windows & windows system files
now even if u delete that file from its original path its copy do the work

A Good Anti like Norton or Spybot can remove this.....

setup.exe is a setup application for many a programs. during the setup time, this process appears. if it continues to run later on n off, it could be malware (a malware can be named anything).

so do try the generic suggestions mentioned above (ie run ur av and anti-spy in safe mode); else pls post ur hijackthis logfile here or at www.hijackthis.de for analysis.

a prelim examinations suggests that ur pc stl has a backdoor trojan infection
(nvsvcd.exe) There may be more...autoanalysing at www.hijackthis.de may show if any more exists.

i suggest u use any one of the following anti-trojans. the first 2 are freeware :
avg anti-spyware (formerly ewido anti-malware)
www.grisoft.com
or
a-squared anti-malware
*www.emsisoft.com/en/software/free/
or
trojan hunter
*www.misec.net/

scan in safe mode for best results :)

ok anandk. iam already tried ewido. but not worked with this. i will try for the other two. as hemant_mathur told i tried spybot. it asked update and i put it on.the update process got going, seems never to end. i'll tell the file size later also the setup.exe is not appearing for now(i've deleted it yesterday only, i'm sure it will come again). now the setup.exe appears only in that folder and not anywhere else. i don't have nortron.

sorry guys... i had no time to reply for the last four days.... i try to be quick...

the file size is 40.0kb and i used all the s/w suggested by you folks ...except norton2006 and spybot..... all are replying no suspicious thing found.... and i know i didn't download that file nor it belongs to any application setup..i checked its properties for summary details.. it's not visible there...

get this file checked at
*virusscan.jotti.org/
and
*www.virustotal.com/en/virustotalf.html

u have to click the browse button and then upload ur file. it will then be scanned with MULTIPLE av (u can c there which ones).

if no infection is detected. just forget about it.

but if a malware is dected, pls post here.
u can use 'delete doctor' utility from www.diskcleaners.com to clean it.

Hellowa,

after a long time ..... doing all as you said (thanx people)...now i got the solution....
i used to download AVG 7.5 Free edition and scanned ....

it got "Trojan Horse proxy.HSK" and the file size is 37kb. also it created a ".ini" file last week and changed that logical drive icon to setup.exe (default setup files icon).

thank you guys .....a lot.
