View Full Version : Two Unidentified Windows Services


August 5th 06, 06:26 PM
I need help trying to identify two services which are displayed in the
services tab of the 'System Configuration Utility' (msconfig).
1. TBOY
2. BTLVT
These are not Microsoft services and both of these services are
'Stopped'.
I have Googled these and found nothing.
Any assistance is appreciated.

The usual response when Google turns up no hits for processes running on
your machine is to suspect a malware infestation. Scan with updated
antivirus and antispyware apps and see what shows up.

When google find nothing, it's usually because they are random names
generated by some malware program. Go to Malke's Malware Removal site at
