Does anybody have any IDEAS how to get rid of it? -- Posted by utheh at 1:48 am on Sep. 1, 2008 quarentine -- Posted by clavicle at 1:48 am on Sep. 1, 2008 It's an executable file. You can uninstall it/remove it yourself. Have you gone into your start menu under programs? All of the things I've managed to pick up like that have been listed in there, where I can uninstall them easily. -- Posted by aGIRLunknown at 1:49 am on Sep. 1, 2008 Quote: from utheh at 4:48 am on Sep. 1, 2008 quarentine deff will work -- Posted by Malachite Morning at 1:49 am on Sep. 1, 2008 Quote: from The Raven at 3:48 am on Sep. 1, 2008 It's an executable file.

Indeed you can. -- Posted by espresso8097 at 2:06 am on Sep. 1, 2008 Safe mode, and then run virus scan or even manually delete if you can locate it (file search including hidden files/folders). -- Posted by vulcan at 3:16 am on Sep. 2, 2008 ashserv.exe is part of the Avast Anti-virus Suite. This process is the main executable for this piece of software, and is important for the stable and secure running of your computer and should not be terminated. -- Posted by Dannay at 9:40 am on Sep. 3, 2008 Ashserv? that aint a virus i don't think.. i have it on my computer and as above above says.. i take it that it comes from Avast Anti Virus
