Yeah, last night I just randomly started getting these attacking messages after I went on Facebook. The attacks are still ongoing, and I believe I've counted 18 times so far blocked. Anyone have a solution for me to stop the attacks? The same address and description has come up on every single attack.
You downloaded a trojan horse of some sort it seems, and this one was created to allow another computor access to your files. I think you have to find it and delete the system registry that it showed you was the source of the attack. You are very lucky that it was blocked, because otherwise this person would have total control of your computor remotely.
The problem is, in the error it's coming up as svchost.exe, which is probably one of the more important applications on the computer. How might I got through finding the trojan? BTW, People say Norton sucks but yeah, it's blocked the now 21 attempts.
If the computer you are on is Debbie-Pc then you have a bot in your system which is trying to download some sort of other virus, or the other way round, you have some sort of malware that is trying to pull a bot onto your computer. If you are not on debbie-pc then it is another computer in your house (whichever has the router ip 192.168.2.4) which is trying to infect your computer as well. Download MalwareBytes and do a scan, also do a scan with your anti-virus. Let me know if that helps
Just because its an exe doesnt mean its a vital file, it could just be diquised as such. Anyway, taking a closer look it appears more like an outside source that got into a basic level of your computor. Do you have a device in [port 49888] or is it external? Regardless, my knowledge of computors is hazy in this area and i think you should use the Norton system to see if there are any more options. As it is, your computor should be fine for now because the security system coninues to block it, and since its a bot it wont make any new attempts, it will just continue the same thing over and over again so you are safe. I reccomend just clicked the hide button or whatever in the action pannel until you get more information. --- This.
