SASSER VIRUS INFO - lsass.exe terminates with an error code

October 22nd, 2004, 10:37 pm

Lsass is normal the sasser worm creates the Lsass but with lower case entry (lsass or something like that)

i know it is a normal file to have, but it isnt normal to use 200mb of ram, crash programs, disable antivirus websites and a bit more.

I FEEL SO PROUD OF MYSELF!

I went to C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\host

I opened that host file in a hex editor, went to the end of it and there was a list of all disabled antivirus websites. I deleted that section and now they work! I AM SO PROUD!!!

But my lsass and svchost problems still r messed up

greensean1, most of the removal tools for sasser are good for every variant, try them, they should remove any variant you could have.

Every twenty minutes or so, I get a message stating that lsass.exe has terminated with -(bunch of numbers) and the system will shut down in 60 seconds. I run Windows XP Home. What's happening, and how can I stop it?

Original lsass.exe is not related to security threats, but the computer shuts down definately because of sasser worm. Sometimes other parasite - Eblaster uses the same filename lsass.exe and shuts down the computer.

Guys,

There are so many messages regarding this issue, that im not very sure whether this is prudent to post or whether you guys already know about this!!!

The best way to rid the system of the virus is:

Wait for the message to come up
Then click on start -> Run-> type shutdown -a then click OK
The timer should stop counting down and give you a connection to the net.
Once your online you need to visit this website and download stinger:

This would fix the issue 100%, its tried and tested!!!

Of course there are a few things that we need to keep in mind -----
For one you should be a quick typist

Hope this helps
