complete beginner here. forgive my for my outdated knowledge and lingo.
Google Chrome process called "vfiujynubu.exe" is creating itself in random folders around my computer and running itself on startup, creating many processes and hogging CPU and RAM. When I try to delete the .exe, i either can't or it recreates itself upon next computer startup and continues running fake Chrome processes (even after I have completely uninstalled Chrome).
I am a subscriber to webroot secureanywhere and reported this problem to them. They suggest it is not a problem. They probably are correct. However I don't understand why all these processes continue to run (and why the .exe is even there) after I uninstall chrome. Here is the exchange:
Hello,
After examining all the information and logs you returned to us. We can see that the file you are referring to is a genuine Google Chrome file.

If you still suspect that your computer is infected, please provide any additional details that might lead you to believe that your computer's behavior is due to malware, and not an unrelated technical issue.
Thank you,

Undetected Malware/Virus
I think I have a virus/malware on my system that was undetected by webroot, and is now buried in my computer, undetectable. Please help. Here is a synopsis of what is going on:
Google Chrome process called "vfiujynubu.exe" is creating itself in random folders around my computer and running itself on startup, creating many processes and hogging CPU and RAM. When I delete the .exe, it recreates itself upon next computer startup and continues running fake Chrome processes (even after I have completely uninstalled Chrome). Deleting the .exe is no good because this virus recreates itself in a new random folder upon next PC startup and does its same thing again.
Please help.
Again, I am probably just a stupid paranoid newbie, but any help or ideas would be great!
Thanks
