[QUOTE="Cassie2007, post: 288212, member: 29609"] Thanks TwinHeadedEagle, I really appreciate your help and this forum. I'm not having any problems with my PC now that I know of. The only thing I see is when I have IE open and I clear cookies, "dllhost.exe COM Surrogate" will show up for a few seconds in Task Manager and then disappear, but it is NOT the one with the *32 added to the name. Is this normal? I have COM SURROGATE C:\Windows\SysWOW64\dllhost.exe blocked in Norton Firewall. Do I unblock it or leave it blocked? I hope you can give me some tips on how to keep my PC clean, what antivirus to use? Why didn't Norton catch this malware? Should I be using something else? Sorry for so many questions.
