Vista ultimate owner...
I get this block/unblock yspusx.exe startup since I don't know what it is I
keep blocking it
I checked the registry and it say in the run section Microsoft Update Machine
value Data yspusx.exe
Is this a trohjan or virus on my machine?

Hello biggwater,

Go to Jotti's site
http://virusscan.jotti.org/
In the file to upload area press Browse then follow the path to the exe file :
Then press Submit and copy and paste the results to notepad and save them so
you can post back the results if needed.

This could well be a false positive.

One way to get further information is to find

yspusx.exe

on your system, and submit the file at one or more of the following sites:

http://www.virustotal.com
=
http://www.microsoft.com/security/portal


Each has a browse window in the upper right to do the submission, and will
check out your file with 10 or so antivirus vendors with one submission.

A clean reading at these sites is not proof that a file is safe, but I'd say
in this case that it is likely to be a good indicator that, in fact, the file
is safe, and you are seeing a false positive.

Good luck

Let us know how it works ºut
