dllhost.exe crashes? Windows 8 and I have no idea what to do

QuantumPacific · Jul 15, 2014

So I have gotten this little message about dllhost.exe for the second time about it crashing and I want to fix it, i looked around and I found out that sometimes this led to memory problems, well I have had a few crashes in minecraft related to memory and i want to know if this is the cause. Also if i can fix it...... i have windows 8 and if specs are needed then i will provide specs

Hel975 :

There is no exact answer to your question. dllhost.exe works with Internet Information Services (IIS) and COM+, it uses in .NET Runtime. So, problem may occur because of memory leak or another idea is it might be a malware, because it's known that some malwares disguises itself as dllhost.exe, particularly when not located in the C:\Windows\System32 folder. Known viruses:
* W32/Lovelet-Y (%SystemRoot%\dllhost.com, %SystemRoot%\System32\dllhost.com)
* W32/Nachi-A (%SystemRoot%\Wins)
* W32/Rungbu-B (%SystemRoot%\setup\dllhost.com, %SystemRoot%\System32\dllhost.com)
* Troj/Sivion-A (%SystemRoot%\System32\System\dllhost.exe)
* W32/Lovelet-DR (%SystemRoot%\System32\dllhost.dll)

Ill check if there its a virus or not, thanks
