I tried to start the service and it crashed. lastly, I installed the new service, as described in this port.and then unpacked the binaries over the existing ones (using the.zip package).I uninstalled it, as there’s probably some differences between the versions.After ClamAV was published in the version 1.0.0 (which can be run as the native Windows service), I decided to upgrade the existing FreshClam service on one machine. Even better, you can track any program, process or file in the system while using this nifty yet powerful utility to reveal a pile of hidden information.Īs you can read from my other post, I used the unofficial Netfarm’s ClamAV port for years. (Don’t worry, if you don’t have a clue about procexp.exe either, we’ll cover that in-depth starting in lesson 2 of this series tomorrow).In today’s story, I will show you how to use one Sysinternals tool named Process Monitor to troubleshoot the start-up problem with one service. If he doesn’t have a clue, he’s probably not quite as good as he says. These tools are used by every single reputable computer guy - if you want to separate the wheat from the chaff, just ask your local PC repair guy what Process Explorer is used for. That’s right, there’s a full set of free tools to do almost any administrator task, from monitoring or starting processes to peeking under the hood to see what files and registry keys your applications are really accessing. There are many other admin tools built into Windows, available for free on the web, or even through commercial sources, but none of them are quite as indispensible as the SysInternals suite of tools.
