 | Falls Windows wieder automatisch runterfährt, hat man den Sasser Virus. Man kann das unterbrechen indem man: Start - Ausführen und dann "shutdown -a" eingibt. Ein Remove-Tool gibt es auch.

 | McAfee says nothing about this virus creating any file named lsass.exe. It does say that the virus causes the computer to reboot by crashing the lsass.exe process. Subsequent error messages mention this legitimate process as having failed. There is NO need to remove lsass.exe it is a vital system file in a networked computer.

 | Error messages containing lsass.exe indicate Sasser-worm. lsass.exe is NOT part of the worm, it's save.
| Cruel Device |
 | As has been said, the worm exploits a bug in lsass.exe that causes it to crash. Lsass.exe is NOT the worm itself. If it were a worm, it certainly wouldn't be advertising itself by displaying a message with its own name in it.
| Troy |
 | This is not a virus, the Sasser worm attacks the lsass process and that is why your computer may shutdown, since the worm stops the lsass process from working

 | The Windows File itself isn't dangerous, what everyone here is describing is a virus that fakes the windows filename - so lets not get paranoid about every lsass.exe we see...
| Martyn |
 | Just use Windows Explorer to check the date of the file against other files in c:\windows\System32. If you find lots of files with the same date it usually means it's a required Windows file. Another way to check files is to do a right-click on their name then select Properties and look at the various info listed there.

 | i have done research on this program and i think people are getting confused with sasser virus this lsass is a system program if you remove it your computer is left wide open for an attacker as lsass.exe is a security program to verify computers on your network so dont panic!
| hackman |
 | In the Windows/system32 folder it is a necessary file. Anywhere else and it's a virus! Caution, Blueyonder will tell you to search for sasser files and if you find lsass.exe to delete it - don't if it's the legit one!

 | lsass.exe is part of the operating system with file extention .exe.hdmp or .exe.mdmp its part of the sasser worm virus. It looks like its gone when it has not. don't know how to remove it totaly as virus software dosen't.

| Smash |
 | lsass.exe doesn't control security, it's merely used by winlogon to authenticate users. Winlogon will then react on whether the user is properly authed or not.

 | This is due to the sasser virus (and variations) attacking the whole system 32. It will cause your computer to shutdown in approximately 62.5 seconds. In the code: the time to shut down - 62.5s is found. Whenever you access the internet certain sites (with http) activate it; then you have the allocated time to shutdown. Other variations include shutdown times of 30s and 124s. The worm is rapidly transmitted over a LAN and replicates instantly. However, the good news is: it is nothing that antivirus doesn't handle.

| Jarmo |
 | Its just a normal OS file. If you have problems with your computer shutting you down saying there was an error with it...Then you should look into the sasser virus. Once you update to the windows xp service packet 2 you will have the lsass.exe file in two if not 3 folders. All three in windows one in the service packet folder one in the system32 folder and one on some computers is in a folder called SoftwareDistribution. If the file is in any or all of these directories it is fine.

 | there are 2 proceses: Lsass and Isass (in lowercase: lsass na isass). If you have the proces starting with i -- that's the worm. If you have proces starting with l -- that's windows file for logon :)

 | Anyone who thinks this is "dangerous" has no idea what they're doing. This is a core security authentication file. Anyone who marked this dangerous is confusing it with "lsas.exe," the Sasser virus.

 | Lsass.exe have the same name then the file in system32 directory. Open the internet, then an error box from Microsoft appear(send the prob. to Microsoft...) then click dont send. A timer is lauch at this moment and you have 1 minute to find something. 1 solution is to fdisk /mbr because if you try to format c:, the worm still on your hard drive. Not dangerous but very bored!
| Bob |
 | The lsass.exe file is needed for logon authentication and is needed especially in a client/server environment. The sasser virus is a completely different thing, if your computer begins a countdown to shutdown when you open a web browser or when you start up messenger, then you are infected by the sasser worm. Get cleaned up by running AVG free from www.grisoft.com
| Timmy McTimmunce |
 | LSASS.EXE is necessary for the XP OS. Symantec has a removal tool for all variants of Sasser which I would recommend you run. Before you run the tool, ensure that you have disabled System Restore. Clean the infection (if any) and update your OS by installing or re-installing the latest service pack and critical updates
| SuperMe |
 | lsass.exe is part of windows OS. If you delete it, or confuse this with a virus, you are retarded and shouldn't be using computers. Check the spelling and it's location people!!!!!

 | Lsass is a normal windows system process, but it is part of a very large security hole in windows. You have to download the patch from microsoft to fix it. You can disable the shutdown by running services,msc from the run option in start menu, selecting Remote procedure call, and selecting the recovery tab, and setting all of the boxes to "restart service".
