|  Fdos-boxer on file called cvmss.exe Got this virus named Fdos-boxer, a flooder classified by Mcafee). this virus is located in windows\system32\cvmss.exe Norton has no info of this virus, only Mcafee has but there is no removal tool. It just says you have to get the latest update from Mcafee (which I did) but after scanning with the latest update, it is identified but it cannot be cleaned nor quarantined. So, any suggestions on how to remove the virus? Also, what is cvmss.exe ?

| no it will analyze a single file with 12 different scanners you may find another antivirus company might call it something else but either way I would delete the file
