Title: Possible Unidentified Virus?
Post by: dragnier on June 28, 2009, 07:27:35 PM

I have a file on my computer called h3wjmzs5eu.exe in the windows directory. This file shows up as a process in my task manager every time I reboot and occasionally on a random basis. I have no idea what it does or is for. Nothing breaks or stops working when I stop it but I can't seem to make it stop showing up. I recently found it and moved it to my documents folder to watch it and see if it moves back. I have scanned it with both my virus scanner and my spyware tool with no flags. My question is if anyone else has encountered a file like this. I have not tried to remove it as yet because I can't id it. I don't want to screw something up by doing it wrong.
