Hello Guys, I have a new trojan called mosucker infected in REG.exe in my windows folder. Windows says it's a vital system file but i don't think it is. if it is i need a fresh copy. if it isn't i need to know how to get rid of windows trying to start it on startup. it's not in run or rinservices nor in my startup folder.
