Rundll Problem Detection and Repair
For starters, you can check to see if a RUNDLL process is running by hitting Control + Alt + Delete and opening the Task Manager. Click on the “Processes” tab and search for RUNDLL. If you find RUNDLL, select it and click “end process”. This will stop the malware. Since the malware that uses the RUNDLL.exe disguises often modifies the registry, many solutions deal with editing the system registry. This is a dangerous job for the average computer user and shouldn’t be entered into lightly. Let’s take a look at cleaning the registry of a fairly simple RUNDLL.exe infection that comes in the form of the WORM_POP.B worm. Not all RUNDLL.exe removals are as easy as this one. In fact, many of the registry edit solutions take up pages with instructions.
After stopping the RUNDLL process in Task Manager, open the Registry Editor by typing in “regedit” after choosing Start/Run.
In the left pane, double-click: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>Software>Microsoft>
Windows>CurrentVersion>Run
In the main panel, find the following entry: Microsoft Service = “Rundll.exe” and delete it.
Exit the registry editor and get yourself a reputable Anti-virus, Antispyware, and Registry Cleaner program!
