scvhost.exe

just downloaded AVG anti spyware and did a quick scan with it and came up with this entry below which i quarantined see pic below



the problem i now have is that when i restart my computer it comes up wiht a message about not being able to find scvhost.exe etc etc.

so...is it actually a virus/spyware or not and if so how do i get rid of these messages on startup. There doesn't seem to be an entry for this in msconfig so i'm lost.

any help much appreciated.

^ just edited my first post as that was a typo. it found svchost.exe which i realise is a windows app but surely it shouldn't come up wih this on a scan??

there is only one entry is msconfig for this but i've tried disabling and the messages still pop up :confused:
 
sorry im getting all confused here now lol

i just tried msconfig again and the messages have gone. so i can safely now delete it as it shouldn't be there !

thanks for your help guys as always ;)
