Lots of hits in a Google search for this.

Might want to try Spybot or Ad-aware first.

Good luck.

I have a virus, It seems nobody heard about this one. It creates à entry in
the
register : video process that launches an application called sysconf.exe. It
the classic smtp engine stuff. I lost access to all antivirus websites
unless I
delete the entries made in the hosts file.

127.0.0.1 www.trendmicro.com
127.0.0.1 trendmicro.com
127.0.0.1 rads.mcafee.com
127.0.0.1 customer.symantec.com
127.0.0.1 liveupdate.symantec.com
127.0.0.1 us.mcafee.com
127.0.0.1 updates.symantec.com
127.0.0.1 update.symantec.com
127.0.0.1 www.nai.com
127.0.0.1 nai.com
127.0.0.1 secure.nai.com
127.0.0.1 dispatch.mcafee.com
127.0.0.1 download.mcafee.com

But my problem is that even if I delete all of the above it keeps coming
back.
