Hey, i have had something really concerning me the past few weeks, I noticed recently wen i chek in task manager processors there is an executable with a name i was unsure of.

It was something like 2kbtHlo.exe
but wen i ended its process and started fresh i notice that something else is back, but the name has changed to something like 3juKlo32.exe

Now i hav tried several scans with Eset smart security both in normal and safe mode but i cant seem to lose it.

i have just noticed lately that it is attached to my IE 7 somehow because everytime it appears i usually have IE open and wen i close the process it closes IE.

Can anyone suggest some ideas PleasE??!
Any help would be Appreciated.

I should probably post this, i recently did a scan and picked up this:

C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\trackmania nations forever/testapp.exe - probably unknown CRYPT.Win32 virus [7], unable to clean.


Any ideas??

I would download avast free and let it do a bootscan and then move all that it finds into the chest.
Ccleaner is another good free cleaner that will remove excess junk from ur pc.

In the link below you will find all these free cleaners listed on one page with basic instructions.
These will be the best to help you:
Ccleaner slim (no toolbar)
Spyware Blaster
SpybotS&D
Win Patrol

Then also do a free online scan:

and remove all it finds.

Some HELP in posting on Computing.net plus free progs and instructions Cheers
