vinifera Posted December 5, 2012 Posted December 5, 2012 how devastating for OS would be if dllhost.exe would be replaced with dud ?(just like XP could to get rid of verclsid)
jaclaz Posted December 5, 2012 Posted December 5, 2012 how devastating for OS would be if dllhost.exe would be replaced with dud ?(just like XP could to get rid of verclsid)Why don't you just try doing it and observe the results?Life is "trying things to see if they work".jaclaz
Tripredacus Posted December 5, 2012 Posted December 5, 2012 Incorrectly cleaning a virus that "replaces" processes like this (or explorer or whatever) will definately cause problems. I'd say give it a shot in a VM!
MagicAndre1981 Posted December 5, 2012 Posted December 5, 2012 this will break a lot of functions (thumbnail, copy/move)
Tripredacus Posted December 5, 2012 Posted December 5, 2012 Actually, it might just be easier to use ProcExp to pause the dllhost.exe process and see how Windows behaves.
vinifera Posted December 5, 2012 Author Posted December 5, 2012 I'd say give it a shot in a VM!can't , too little disk for both OS and VM of same this will break a lot of functions (thumbnail, copy/move)copy/paste is dependant on this thing?
dencorso Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 A quick search yields this and this, which I believe are worth reading.
MagicAndre1981 Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 copy/paste is dependant on this thing?yes, since Vista MS finally moved a lot of code into seperate DLLs and uses DLLhost.exe to run them.
