Hello all,
Seems I only have a very small part of this CW problem (left?)in my WinXP. Since several weeks Windows is asking for svchost32.exe after start-up. As far as I can see this is the only effect on my system sofar.
FYI: I use Bullguard 3.5 as virus protection and firewall.
Ran CWShredder last night and it couln't find any of the files it was looking for and did not find a reason to correct any of the other things it scanned.
Any idea how I can get rid of Win asking for this stupid file?

Let's have a look, Download 'Hijack This!'. Unzip, doubleclick HijackThis.exe, and hit "Scan".
When the scan is finished, click "Save Log", and copy and paste it in a reply.
HijackThis!

Run HT again and check the following items. Next, close all browser Windows, and have HT 'fix checked'.

You Must restart your computer when you're done.
