Can't remove LavasoftTcpService.dll


Recommended Posts

Just reformated my computer the other day and I already somehow got a bug I don't want, I haven't even downloaded adaware. Malwarebytes doesn't find it, Avast doesn't, and every other thing I've run won't find it. Heck, only reason I eve knew I had this was it kept crashing Guild Wars 2 as it tried to update today and that dll came up in the crash log as the cause. I know it's a thing from Lavasoft but I haven't downloaded anything from them and the date on the file is from the day before I reformated my computer. I can't manually delete the file as it's in use by one of many services that keep switching as I close them down. I went into the safemode to manually delete it but then I lose the ability to access the internet. So here I am at the end of my rope out of ideas on what to do. Searching the net for this problem led me here with high hopes for help.

 

I ran Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and uploaded the two .txt files that it created.

Download attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop.

NOTE. It's important that both files, FRST/FRST64 and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work.

NOTICE: This script was written specifically for this user, for use on that particular machine. Running this on another machine may cause damage to your operating system

Run FRST/FRST64 and press the Fix button just once and wait.

If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.

When finished FRST will generate a log on the Desktop (Fixlog.txt). Please post it to your reply.

Alright the first time I scanned the program quickly stopped responding though it still generated a Fixlog. Restarted ran it again and it completed just fine and needed to restart the computer. It didn't remove the problem files but I was able to manually delete them without entering safe mode or losing internet. Fixlog is the first one it generated before not responding, Fixlog2 is the one is generated after running successfully.

 

I won't be able to really test to see if it still somehow crashes Guild Wars 2 while updating since I'm all up to date and I don't want to waste data re downloading the whole game. However since the .dll files are gone I"m hoping.

 

Thanks for the help!
