ke3pup Posted September 30, 2004 Posted September 30, 2004 hi guyshope this is the right section i posted this topic. i have this Startup entry that keeps coming back every time i delete it. Thankfully Ad-watch blocks it from adding its self to "Run oNce" but it keeps coming back. it's called:AvLiteBri did a search on my PC for it and nothing found, i scanned for Adware and spyware using ad-ware and SPy sweeper but nothing found. so does anyone know what this thing (AvLiteBr) wants to do or what it belongs to?
BeenThereB4 Posted September 30, 2004 Posted September 30, 2004 Are you running AVG antivirus? That is possibly a part of it.
ke3pup Posted October 1, 2004 Author Posted October 1, 2004 no i dont. i used to have Panda AntiVirus but i uninstalled it completly. now i run Norton anti virus. when i log on to my account i also notice a splash screen, but it goes away so quickly that i cann't recognize what it says or even what it looks like, just a square screen comes and goes in less than a second. and when i look into my processes there is nothing suspicious! i can't track dwon "AvLiteBr" either. i looked into registry , it finds some keys for "AvLiteBr" but there is no path for the file if it is a file!
oftentired Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 Let it run one time only. Check your running processes and try to obtain more information about it as well as where the actual exe or dll is located on your system. If your concerned about it calling home just have your firewall temporarily stop all traffic.
ke3pup Posted October 1, 2004 Author Posted October 1, 2004 ok i'll let it run and c what happens, hey is Kerio Firewall from AVG company? it so would that "AvliteBr" be becuase of Kerio? i 'll get back to u after i let it run.
ke3pup Posted October 1, 2004 Author Posted October 1, 2004 now that i want to let it run nothing wants to run! Ad-watch doesnt detect "AvLiteBr" anymore either. its suddenly gone for good without me doing anything (just talking about it) ? anyways thanks for your support.
N1K Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 now that i want to let it run nothing wants to run! Ad-watch doesnt detect "AvLiteBr" anymore either. its suddenly gone for good without me doing anything (just talking about it) ? anyways thanks for your support.This was apparently one registry key that needs to be proccessed after the installation of some software..
jassalmithu Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 check if u got any ugly search bar in ur Internet Explorer present then i wud suggest what 2 do otherwise it's just MAYBE an innocent entry of removed spyware and strictly follow this rule just stick to one Anti-virus and never ever install other over it
