483760 2006-09-10 10:32:00 Anyone know what this is for - under Hidden Drivers - non-P&P. And its NOT the sshdrv79.sys in c:\windows\system32.

Just a hidden driver.

I can remove it but it comes back.

483763 2006-09-11 07:38:00 What I meant was the file location of the driver, if it had one. When you say it's not system32\sshdrv79.sys, did you mean \system32\drivers\sshdrv79.sys? Google seems to favour the latter location.

There seems to be remarkable little information about this little thing...

No, I meant - according to one or two websites, it's not under System32 itself as indicated if it was malware.

It was under drivers as you say.
Beats me where it came from and what it was for. I'm guessing some game protection thing? Whatever, I killed it....
