Hey Microsoft,
I noticed that for some strange reason yesterday I was getting logs from our corporate firewall that my pc was trying to login with out me trying. It kept getting a wrong user name and password failure, so I got a little curious and started looking at the processess that are running and found wininit.exe in the list, anyhow after looking up the process online it seems to be a virus.
Why doesnt OneCare see this as a virus?

Okay, did a search and found six instances.
3 MUI Files
1 EXE File
2 Applications
1 is in the system32 foler
1 is in Windows folder
and the rest are in a winsxs folder
Why isnt there a thread somewhere stating that this is a legit process?
Could this be whats trying to login to our firewall?

I am inclined to believe you are infected but I am not an expert. I suggest contacting support for advice on this issue. You can reach support by using the help link in the One Care console.- 回答としてマーク Stephen BootsMVP, Moderator 2008年12月24日 14:48
