Resolved Block/Unblock 'dllcache'

Hi Daniel, Welcome to Windowsbbs!

Read this, The Windows XP Dllcache Folder.

I would unblock the entry from the Windows Firewall as the dllcache folder is a vital part of the Windows Operating System thats used for protecting your system files from modifications.

To add an exception to Windows Firewall so that it doesn't keep blocking the program read this, Using Windows Firewall.

BTW where is the dllcache file located in your computer?

Also please enter your System Details. It helps us in answering your questions.

Note: A common error is to forget to show your System Details in your profile:

Make sure to do the above when entering your System Details, thanks.

 

You should block dllcache, then start a new thread in the Removing Malware forum here.

Ther dll cache is just that, a cache of dll files. Sort of like backupos. Dllcache.exe has no business connecting to the Internet and most likely your comp has a backdoor trojan infection.

Please read this as indicated at the head of the forum and post the logs requested in a new thread.

 

Yes...

 

You could have already been infected before you even installed Service Pack 2. Also System Restore may not have removed the infected file when you restored your system.

Its obvious that you have picked up some kind of malware infection so like everyone else has said you should post a new thread in the Malware and Virus Removal Forum. You could very easily be infected with other viruses as well since if there is one trojan that has infected your machine there is a high chance that more could have snuck into your system.

 

A full rather than quick reformat of the hard drive will wipe everything well enough for the purposes of a fresh install.

Certainly a solution and would save our hard pressed malware analysts unnecessary work.

It's your decision, but please do not make use of their valuable time in sorting out your probable infection and then immediately formatting

 

Whatever decision you decide to make is fine with us. Just let us know if you are going to be formatting the machine or starting a new thread in the Malware and Virus Removal Forum.

 

Ok then. Make sure that you back up all of your data that you want to save before you format the machine.

If you have any questions about formatting your system don't hesitate to ask.
