Why Ping.exe running so hard?

My computer slows down, my hard drive constantly to lie down and then off, the Task Manager indicates that "" PING. "." EXE"is using (100% of my CPU up to)
My anti-virus does not like a virus - but when I try to stop Manager tasks 'finish the process' - it keeps jumping to the top and eat my memory - I need to remove it? What do you recommend?

What you describe is probably related with the TDSS/Alureon rootkit. Kaspersky TDSSKiller might be able to remove it:

It would be a good idea to run another utility anti-rootkit. GMER is good:
I would also recommend two anti-malware utilities: SUPERAntiSpyware portable scanner and the FREE version of MalwareBytes Anti - Malware (not the Pro or the trial version!):
What version of XP you are running (Home, Pro, or MCE)? What level of SP is in? If SP3, you have all the security post-SP3 hotfixes installed? Finally, if you use Adobe Flash, Adobe Reader or Java from Oracle (formerly Sun), you have the latest versions installed? If your system is not UP to date with all THE latest security patches, you will surely get infected again!

  • Why when I run the installer for Windows 8 consumer preview on my computer of Windows XP Home Edition he says: "this platform is not supported"?

    Setup of Windows 8 consumer priview

    Why when I run the installer for Windows 8 consumer preview on my computer of Windows XP Home Edition he says: "this platform is not supported"?

    You can see this message if you downloaded Windows 8 64-bit and XP 32-bit. To start the installation of Windows 8, you will need to restart and boot from the installation of Windows 8 media.

    If you want to keep your current installation of Windows, you can install it on a separate partition and dual boot with the Windows 8 Preview of consumer. To install on a separate partition and dual boot, you must create and boot from the installation media.

    (1) first you will need a free partition on hard drive - if you do not you can shrink a partition and create a new one to install Windows 8 Preview of consumer on.
    To reduce a partition and add a new one that you can use EASEUS Partition Master (free):
    http://www.partition-tool.com/personal.htm
     
     
    (2) to install on a separate disk, you can perform an installation DVD or USB key, then boot from it so you can choose the other partition. To download the ISO file and install media:
    Download Windows 8 consumer Preview ISO:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/ISO
    After you download the ISO file - use the Windows USB/DVD Download tool to install media:
    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool
     
     
    (3) installation on a separate partition for dual boot:
    1 make a DVD or USB installation drive - to see the two options above.
    2. start from the DVD or USB install drive and click on install when prompted.
    3. during the installation process, when asked - choose a custom installation.
    4. Select a free partition on the hard disk to install Windows 8 Preview of consumer - this will install Windows 8 on a separate instead of your current Windows partition partition.
    5 continue with the installation.
       
     
     
    First of all please note:
    1 consumer preview Windows 8 is a pre-release and will only work for a limited time - when it expires, you need to remove it.
    2. the overview of consumption is stable and has been tested, but it s not the finished product. Your PC may crash and you may lose important files. You should backup your data and you shouldn't test Windows 8 Preview of consumers on your primary home or business PC.
    3. If you install the preview of consumption on the Windows partition is currently installed, you cannot uninstall the preview of consumption. To return to your previous version of Windows, you will need to reinstall from the recovery or installation media supplied with your PC.
    4. in addition to dual boot, here are a few methods to install Windows 8 Preview of consumers without affecting your current installation of Windows:
    (A) remove your current hard drive and install the Preview of consumers on a spare drive.
    (B) install it on a spare computer.
    (C) install the Preview of consumer in a virtual machine.

    Hi Pops1148,

    ·         Is the question not confined with updated Microsoft Office?

    Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

    Method 1: You can follow the steps in the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base and check if it works.

     

    Troubleshooting Windows Update or Microsoft Update when you are repeatedly offered an update

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/910339

    Method 2: Try the SFC (System File Checker) scan on the computer.

    To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:

    a. click Startand type cmd in the box start the search .

    b. right click on cmd in the list programs, and then click run as administrator.

    c. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue

    d. at the command prompt, the following line and press ENTER:

    sfc/scannow

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/system_file_checker.mspx?mfr=true

    Method 3: I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

    The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

     

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

     

    Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

    Important: While hard disk analysis if bad sectors are found when scanning try to repair this area, all available on which data can be lost.

    Let us know if that helps.

    MalwareBytes's AntiMalware - no AntiVirus. ;-)

    Probably your best bet - flatten (wipe) the system and start from scratch.  You will need your most recent backup (your stuff, like your documents, photos, music, video, spreadsheets, databases, presentations, bookmarks/Internet favorites, e-mail contacts, serial number, proof of purchase/receipts, that may have been scanned in, etc. and so on...) and a good list of installed software and hardware specifications (I suggest Belarc Advisor running on the current system and print the results if possible) then you can get the drivers before or after installation.

    Of course, you will also need your multimedia installation product key/serial numbers and that go hand in hand.  In Windows XP - there is no way for me to know (without telling you) what level your installation CD is... so you will need to install the SP2 and SP3 after installing the operating system.  I would leave it disconnected from the Internet (physically) until it is at least SP3 and you have confirmed its firewall is enabled and, if possible, you have installed an antivirus application.

    For you, I suggest the eSet 32 antivirus (not more) - which costs ~ $60 every two years for private users.  Add to that the MalwareBytes full package which costs, if I remember, ~ $25 for life.

    Then, once the system * is * connected to the Internet (physically) - get hardware drivers installed for everything and the rest 100 + installed post-SP3 updates.  Then you can worry about all your other programs and restore your files LAST.

  • Why msmpeng.exe consumes all the cpu

    Why msmpeng.exe cause my computer lock in place... and consume so much CPU usage... and how can I fix the problem?...

    Hi schuylerwoods,

    1. Did you the latest changes on the computer?
    2. You have a third-party security software installed on the computer?
    3. When exactly the computer freezes?

    Msmpeng.exe process is used by the Microsoft Windows Defender to perform the procedures for scanning of spyware.

    It is also possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

    I suggest that you configure the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    See section to learn more about how to clean boot.

    Are you using the quick change of user with more than one user connected and are both instances of HpqPhUnl.exe running under different user names?

    Although it is always possible for malware to masquerade as a legitimate file, HpqPhUnl.exe is related to the HP Photosmart Essential software provided with printers HP all-in-one.

    Hello

    -Don't you make changes to your computer before the show?

    Ping.exe is a Windows core system file. It is a Microsoft signed file. The program has no visible windows.

    Some malware camouflage themselves as ping.exe, particularly if they are located in the folder c:\windows or c:\windows\system32. So check the process ping.exe on your pc, be it on the pest

    I suspect a malware problem. I would have you use the Microsoft Safety Scanner and check if the problem persists.

    Note: You may lose some data infected while the malware is being eliminated.

  • MsiExec.exe running at all times

    Seems I'm always 2 instances of msiexec.exe running at all times. So far, I ran the Windows Installer Clean up tool, enabling the service to manual start and down anti virus scans. I can disable it in the Task Manager, but as soon as I restart, they are all two back on even if I do not want to install anything.

    When I try to install anything, I get the message that windows is already install something and try again later. I manually close msiexc.exe with the Task Manager and then the installation goes smoothly.

    Thank you

  • Iexplore.exe runs twice in my task of process manager. How do I know that you close?

    When I turn on the internet, I have an iexplore.exe which uses a lot of memory, more than 200 000 K and one that uses very little of 15, 000 K.  I also seem to have a running explorer.exe.

    Anyone running Windows XP has "explorer.exe" running - it's the office.

    When iexplore.exe is, assuming that you are sure that the two tasks are spelled the same and both are run under the same user account, and then if you have upgraded Internet Explorer to version 8, the reason for the two instances of iexplore.exe is the new browser uses a separate process 'iexplore.exe' for each currently open tab. If you start your browser, you will automatically have two processes, one for the main browser window and one for the first tab.

    Microsoft has implemented this technique in Internet Explorer 8 to accommodate a more effective process to each tab priority. An example would be if you were listening to streaming radio in a tab and the surf in another. The tab that has your focus can and will take precedence over the background tab and cause the radio to cut or even stop. In the new Internet Explorer, each tab has its own procedure that allows equal priority over time CPU and not let not another tab steal the processing time for an another background tab.

    If you don't have IE 8, then you probably have a malware problem.  Download, install, update and run each of these two free scanners.  Do not run both at the same time.  Each will take a while ends, then start it up and then go for a non-it chore.

    original title: updatetask.exe

    Hi RAM,

    UpdateTask.exe comes from the ask.com toolbar. If you don't want this toolbar, you can Uninstall from the computer. Search for the file in the following location: %ProgramFiles%\ask.com\updatetask.exe

    Follow these methods.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

    Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

    Method 2: Put the computer in a clean boot State to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Note: After completing the steps in the clean boot troubleshooting, follow the section How to configure Windows to use a Normal startup state of the link to return the computer to a Normal startupmode.

    After the clean boot used to resolve the problem, you can follow these steps to configure Windows XP to start normally.

    (a) click Start, run.

    (b) type msconfigand click OK.

    (c) the System Configuration Utility dialog box appears.
