PUM
« on: May 30, 2016, 12:42:57 AM »
Apologies if covered elsewhere - I run RK every so often and keep getting two pum's in the registry hkey local machine\system\current controlsettings001\services\ .....\tcpip....\ dhcpnameserver. These go into quarantine and reappear on the next check.
ZA and Mbam don't come up with anything.
Is there any way to find out if these findings indicate a virus?

thanks
