Recently installed Microsoft Antispyware (within the last two weeks). Today ran into a problem with a Trojan, and at the same time got a message from the antispyware that it intercepted "dmuva.exe" from being added to the registry. Can't find any information on this file. Looking at Windows System32, the file (43kb) is NOT new: created 13Aug03, modified 4Aug05. Anyone know anything about this exe file?

It may be related to UnSpyPC.Please post a Hijack This log so that the files associated with the virus/spyware/hijacker can be identified. You can download Hijack This at this link http://www.tomcoyote.org/hjt/ then place it into a folder of it's on, such as C:\HJT, so that back up copies can be made and not clutter your desktop or other folders and the backup copies of deleted items can be easily located if needed.

Once saved double click HijackThis.exe, and press "Scan". When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button.
Press that, save the log, Ctrl-A to Select All, and copy its contents into the text editor at this forum.

Do not fix anything yet unless you know what you are doing. This is a powerful tool that can crash the computer if used improperly.
