Hi bwash12
 
Welcome to the Community Forums.
 
Difficult one this as taskeng.exe itself is not a virus.  That is the TRUE taskeng.exe file is a safe Microsoft Windows system process, called "Task Scheduler Engine".
 
However, as they will malware writers deliberately give their processes the same file name to escape detection.  So in this case, just to be sure I would strongly recommend that you  Open a Support Ticket and let the Support Team check out what is on your system and if it is malware then deal with it professionally, rather than us give you advice that may end up damaging your system.
 
The service from the Support Team is free for all users with an active subscription.
 
Hope that helps?
 
Regards, Baldrick
