I got windows xp home installed on my laptop. yesterday evening when i booted up the system,i got a warning saying a trojan has been found in the system.its a trojan named New Malware.j.its present in the following location,
C:\Windows\System32\N5619\smss.exe
i tried removing the folder manually but it comes back again when i restart.i am using mcafee home edition 2006.i tried removing it with that and also with spybot-search and destroy but of no use.
Can anyone let me know if its dangerous and what should i do to get rid of it.it starts up everytime along with the os.help will be greatly appreciated. thanks a lot..
