On my other computer, while I suspected to be infected, I ran Housecall. Twice, it had nearly finished loading the database when it flipped out, and there was an error screen about downloading. Behind that was another screen, and about all I could see was "conagen.exe"

I looked online, and there apparently is a legitimate programme 'conagent.exe' , but I'm pretty sure this was conagen.exe. When I searched for THAT, I got a bunch of Chinese sites and hacker sites.

Hmmmmm.... does anyone know what conagen.exe IS??

Thanks

Thanks for that.

I am sorting out some confusion between
'conagen' and 'conagent'.
