Hi,
I'm new here. i have a acer running on windows 7. i switched from the trial Mcafee to my university sophos antivirus. i keep getting this pop up that says "File "C;|windows\sysWOW64\identprv.dll" has been identified as suspicious file of type Sus/Dropper-A. Please send a sample to sophos." I have tried fixing it and deleting it but to no avail.
I have loaded malware scans and it showed me just one error which was fixed i think and i have uninstalled that post fixing. (i can't recall what the fix was). My laptop hasnt been affected in terms of performance yet. but nevertheless i am curious where i went wrong with protecting my laptop from these errors.
anyone knows if there could be something wrong. I read coupla threads and i installed Hijack this, so here is a log file if it helps
Logfile of Trend Micro HijackThis v2.0.4
