"Installer Center" service on XP, malware?

Found a suspicious service running on some XP machines I maintain at one of our local primary schools, picked up by Kaspersky TDSSKILLER as hloeignzq and file C:\Windows\System32\xlevcb.dll, did a full Sophos scan but nothing reported, using Sophos Enpoint Security and Control 10.0.

Looking through the registry links it to "Installer Center" service with same description as Secondary Logon service, but there is no file called xlevcd.dll in System32 folder so unsure if this is a remnant of some uninstalled software but it just looks suspicious.

Anyone come across this service running on XP machines before or know what it is?

Thanks.

  • Hello Web-Junkie,

    please try to just go to the article again and click the link once more (or right-click Save as ...).

    Can't say if the download requires that you account is linked to one of the AV products. Therefore I also can't say how it behaves after you log in. But I've observed some glitches with the SSO lately - so please check the very top of the article page where it should say Welcome Web-Junkie  My Account  Log out .... make sure there's indeed your username after the Welcome (on some occasions I've seen My Account instead ... ).
