Unremovable "Services" in HiJackThis Log

Unread postby craigceg » February 5th, 2010, 3:38 am

HP G60 Laptop with Vista Home Premium SP2 - 64 bit - 4GB Ram

This was brought to me with suspected malware after going to the Geek Squad first. Customer complained of running slowly. I discovered that the slow running was from corrupted file structure that was fixed by running chkdsk.

I then installed and ran Malwarebytes, Spybot Search & Destroy, Spywareblaster, CCleaner and HiJackThis.

Everything seems fine with the exception of the "023" services entries with "file missing". I have not seen the "@" prefix before and they do not remove even when checked in HJT.

Can anybody explain them and how to remove them?
