?Viruses

[George Jallo]

My system is very slow. It is Windows XP on an IBM notebook. Task manager shows several files I do not know what they do. How do I clean my system and find the files.
mcwin.exe, dbun.exe, oleimg.exe, and imgvb.exe
thanks,

George Jallo....If you don't already have it ...download and run... Ad-Aware SE  from the link below.

SpyBot search and destroy....from.........

Both of these utilities do a pretty good job of cleaning out pests. If you run these apps on a regular basis in conjunction with a good up to date anti virus your pc should run a lot smoother and noticably faster.

Hope this helps

mcwin.exe is something to do with a program called "Mod Calc", which is a part of what appears to be some business tool by a company called "Smart-Comp". I reckon you would have either installed yourself or, if it's a company computer, the system admins would have.

The other three do not return anything in a Google search, which is very strange. Get a virus scanner as well as the two products dl65 mentioned and scan. I suspect you'll get a clean(ish) bill of health from them but you'd best be safe...
