Well, like my old thread I am having heat issues once again but this time according to the task manager it's an image named "IEUTIL*32" that pops up in about 10 seconds when idle and runs my gpu temps into the mid 80's (while in use they stay in the high 20's) Also the cpu usage goes up to around 33% and memory up to 130k:wtf: I have attached a gpuz logfile for anyone to check out and give me advice on what's going on here if possible.


I've tried to shut it down using the task manager but the little bugger is too fast and dissapears as soon as I move the mouse:banghead:

ieutil.dll is a process from OneRiot, Inc... It can be found in the location of C:\Program Files\Common Files. It is a potential security risk which can be modified maliciously by virus. ieutil.dll virus should be disabled and removed if it was attacked and brought you windows xp/vista/7 errors.

Malware.

I can't find it:mad: I tried running Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and it doesn't find a problem, although as I watch the task manager the "ieutil" dissapears as soon as I start Anti-Malware. I think it kinda want's to stay hidden huh?:laugh:

Malware can do a pretty decent job of hiding from antivirus programs. I think your best bet would be to follow the steps here:

Ubuntu Live CD

It seems lengthier than it really is. Skip to the bottom to see the alternatives to avast. If you have a USB stick laying around that is/can be emptied and is 4GB or more, that'll be faster than burning a disc.

That's one suggestion.

Nope, still popping up. Haven't tried ad-aware but will try it. Driving me nut's trying to get rid of it short of a restore.

When I asked if you were able to fix your problem, I also meant to ask if you gave the Live CD a try.
