Another URL MAL in svc

Viruses and worms
1

I’ve been trying to get rid of an URL Mal alert for a couple of days now with no success. Its seems to be a dll injected into svc.

Hoping you guys can review my logs and help.

Thanks

Thank you for the quick reply. I’ve attached the zoek results. After the pc rebooted, i received my usual litany of “threat detected” messages for various sites coming from svchost.exe.
