Well ProcessExplorer used to point services.exe on c:\windows\system\DRIVER, were I couldn't find any services.exe in the explorer (I checked that explorer was not configured for hidding files). Moreover I was not able to create a file called services.exe, explorer wouldn't do it because another one was called like this in the folder!!!! Then, in a command prompt I executed "del services.exe", and the del command told me no file was there. Then, I did "mv services.exe services.exe.old", and the file was renamed. I created a services.exe from an empty txt file, and that's it, services.exe (the one containing a copy of cygwin1.dll) does not launch himself anymore at each boot and cygwin works correctly. I definitly think it's a worm. > > Hmm... Weird. Well, it's gone now...

Attached with the mail, my last cygcheck which seems fine. ___________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
