Hi Same Here,

Could you post the MD5 value for the legitimate srvany.exe file please. That way we can be sure whether we are talking about the same file or not.

You can get the MD5 using a program like RapidCRC.

It would be really helpful to find out the cause. By the way, the procedure I mentioned above worked for me. The problem is fixed.

I use Windows XP SP2.

I have the exact same problem spent 3 days fixing…. can you see your devices in device manager or network connections…

srvany.exe is a legitimate windows file…

= service any

I think the problem is a microsoft security patch….for xp sp2

@ano,
No, I’m not using Folder Lock.

But I do use a program called Unlocker – it helps to delete files which are in use by programs (the stubborn ones that you can’t delete using Windows xp). Deleting the srvany.exe file did not result in any deterioration of the Unlocker program, so I don’t think it is part of Unlocker.
