Unable to remove dxc.exe

5 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/unable-to-remove-dxc-exe.38725/

A file called dxc.exe (located at d:\program files\deluxe communications\) atomatically loads and prevents me to search with firerox. I removed it from the msconfig several times and it's again there. spybot and adaware do not find it as spyware. I am using XP prof. I removed all the files with such name from 98. It came back once I started firefox. How the remove it?

type MSCONFIG in the run box, maybe you can find a solution there...

Please read it fully.

Do a system scan with a good Antivirus!

well kadal27, it appears that ur pc has been infected with Adware.DeluxeCommunications.Process, a SurfSideKick variant.

generally to remove this or any file u can use the tool 'delete doctor' from www.diskcleaners.com Lock the file with this utility -it gets deleted during boot-up. 'unlocker' is another such good utility.

also clear up ur pc junk with ccleaner from www.ccleaner.com if posbl.

if problem stl persists, post ur hijackthis logfile here.

have an adware free day !
