| vista ultamate 64bit | msascul.exe?? startup?? Hey Guys and Gals been a while now since my system has ran a but rough with performance issues ect, i have been trying to work this 1 out for a while but not really had much luck till now due to some sort of confusion with the way google has searched a particular .exe i have begun to notice a particular startup item by the name of MSASCul.exe, now google has been confusing it with MSASCui.exe which turns out to be windows defender, so still somewhat confused i have obtained autoruns and tried a verification on msascul.exe only for autoruns to come back as not verified, googling so far the correct msascul.exe has brought little information up and would hopefully like some verification on if its a genuine executable or some little nasty i need to catch thanx |

| Vista Ultimate 64-bit, SP2 | Re: msascul.exe?? startup?? Hi ripbox, It's worth running SuperAntiSpyware free version to see what it flushes out. Perform a complete scan, which can take some time. Reboot at end. For a second opinion Malwarebytes free version is an option. Reboot at end. Let us know how you go. Good luck.
