hi again,
i just find this very strange, never notice on something like this before, when i go to the my pictures folder, now appear one folder called explorer captures , i open, and inside is some screenshots of my desktop, what is this ? this can“t be normal, do you know if this is from some aplication that i may have instaled or is really some kind of a malware?

Well, it could be legitimate, if anyone using your computer uses the print screen button to take a picture of your desktop. Are all of the pictures of your desktop?
If you want, you could try deleting the Explorer Captures folder and rebooting. See if it comes back after your reboot.
Have you experienced any other abnormal activity?

hi.. i deleted once this folder, my pictures/explorer captures, and this appear again, not right away, but it appears, maybe one day or 2 after, now o deleted again and im waiting this to appear again...... this takes screenshots of my desktop..is just 2 or 3 screenshots...but it is from my desktop., that i have sure... , i recently had the PDSched.exe worm... i deleted..

other thing that now is geting on my nervs is that blue screen ( pc crach) is happening a lot... one of this days i know i will have to kick the pc trought the window...

I believe that the Pdsched.exe worm has a couple of processes that come with it, that should also be gotten rid of. I can't remember where I found this information, but I'll be searching for it.
Have you also noticed strange running processes, or your firewall requesting irregular programs to acess the internet?

hi again..thanks for your reply...,
i find out what it was, it is nothing bad, this explorer captures is something that this tool Hello do when its integrated whit internet explorer,..this Hello is a tool to help post picture on the Blogger...
now i just have the blue screens to worry about..
