General information on removing an unwanted / Malware service:
Use the "SC DELETE <...>" Command-line, or follow the instructions to remove
a Service / driver from the registry directly.
The Service and driver entries are present under this registry key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services]
Each sub-key represents a driver or a Service. To modify/delete a 3rd party
service, click Start, Run and type REGEDIT to open the Registry Editor and
navigate to the above location.You should be able to identify them easily by
reading the "DisplayName" and "ImagePath" fields in the right-pane in the
Registry Editor.
Note: Before modifying / removing a Service, create a System Restore point
or a complete Registry backup, just in case something happens.
