Hi,

I have what I suspect to be malicious programs running on my computer, they basically consume CPU and memory and I have no idea whatever else they may be doing. If I bring up the Task Manager, I can kill them, but they seem to immediately come back.

The trouble is that I've searched my hard drive more than once and I can never find these files. I'm assuming that the "Image Name" in task manager is fake, because I cannot find these files, hidden or otherwise.

The 2 that seem to be constant are named "wdrv.exe" and "keymain.exe". I keep killing them and they keep coming back. At times I can kill them and they don't come back, but they always launch when I boot up. I can't delete them from my system because these files don't seem to exist.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Ricardo

See if this post will help you find them. If you need help, post your log here. I can't identify as valid either of the tasks you mentioned.
