Yes, it is a real needed file for IIS. However, it normally resides in the
%systemroot%\system32 folder.

 

This one is located in the \wins folder, which wins has nothing to do with
web services. It is a virus made to look like a real file.

Hi, 

In the latest msblast script there is a file mentioned dllhost.exe 

This is a real Windows file isn't it? 

I read what dllhost.exe does, something to do with COM+. Will it matter if
it is deleted?
