[1] According to www.prevx.com it can also use over 50 different names in the system.



I suggest Downloading SUPERAntiSpyware here

http://www.superantispyware.com/

It has a Free version that will scan and clean "any" malware infection.



Also, go to Malwarebyte's website here

http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php

Download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware free version and install it and run another scan and clean the system.



Hope this helps. :)

Your computer has been severely infected by malware, that is MSET.EXE. This is quite dangerous and unsafe for your PC and there may be other infections on your PC. You should urgently check your PC and remove any malicious application including MSET.EXE as soon as possible.
