Most Common Malware Related Processes-dc.exe

dc.exe is a process that belongs to a downloader worm. This worm typically spreads via chat rooms and chat applications and, once it has infected your computer, it will then attempt to download further applications and pieces of code to your computer. This is a security risk because it can lead to a number of other malware applications downloading onto your system that can, in turn, cause more damage.

The most effective way to prevent downloaders from being able to contact remote servers and downloading more files is to use a firewall. A firewall blocks all unwanted Internet traffic, both incoming and outgoing, making it impossible for applications like downloaders to deliver their payload effectively. In order to remove the downloader itself, though, you will require either antispyware or antivirus software.
