http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/what-is-rundll32exe-and-why-is-it-running/

I am running XP Thought
i did hear about this file being important

but how do i know its not affected by some thing or its Modified or not? ???

Good question ??? ??? ??? ??? I really cannot answer this maybe some can.

Or look in here http://www.processlibrary.com/directory/files/rundll32/

Why do you think rundll32.exe is infected?

This is what I see when I navigate to C:\WINDOWS\system32 Folder

because avg doesn’t know whats good and whats evil Which is some times bad and some times good
perhaps its time to uninstall it… the only thing i like that its firewall it asks when i Open or when some one Tries to connect to me (Except My ISP Of course) , i don’t think avast warns me which makes me feel unsecured but its database sure waaaaaaaaaay better than avg

maybe RunDLL32 is trying to Run a cretin DLL i am not sure it started when i just opened my computer and avg Detected it as malware…
better not to remove RunDLL32.

It also says threat name Unknown
Security level 4
Description : not available

Hey be careful avg can remove important files also I tried to remove a virus with it.
It made my laptop unbootable!
Careful
Windows system 32 are important files

Uncertainty brings a lot of major problems^^

So if ur unsure about something, its better to leave it as it is^^

may some kind of a tip
I think u should leave that dll alone…then if something wierd happens to ur PC with or without ur consent, its time for a HijackThis log^^

Even the virus was in my computer if I let in like it is I could have played a bit more with my computer but by removing these windows files then I can’t do anything

Hi Scan,

See whether it isn’t a bridge problem (bridgedll.exe) on your machine,delete all instances of bridge.dll

Use regedit to premanently remove the row "rundl32.exe “C:\WINNT\system32\bridge.dll,Load” from the registry
folder “HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run”

Delete bridge.dll from C:\winnt\system32\folder

So rundll32.exe can be fine, but the association in the registry can be malicious. Do you understand?

polonus

I guess so.
i don’t have bridge dll any where tho

Scan please run a Hijack log maybe the problem can be solved, Polonus or somebody can review your Hijack log very carefully and may give you more information on what to do.
