I didn't shutdown my pc last night and I left procmon running to monitor WriteFile operations on hosts file.

This morning when I work up, I saw this result:enter image description here

and what is changed in hosts is that the entry containing "www.google.com" is gone! I'm pretty sure about that because I checked the content of hosts yesterday before I slept. Just now this morning, I checked hosts again, the entry with "wwww.google.com" is gone while everything else is untouched.

Could anybody explain what happened ?

any program can run under svchost.exe, malware loves to use it also. – Moab Nov 9 '12 at 2:55
