Hi,
I've been having a problem with my computer, it's been lagging a lot, and I've found that the file(s) that have been causing the problem are: twunk_32t.exe and twunk_16m.exe. I believe I've gotten rid of the twunk_16m, but the 32t is the one that's causing the most trouble. Also, when I log on, it says I have an error with "explorer5.vbs" Could that be related?

Thank you for your time (and help),
Joshua

Hmm, that second link doesn't help me at all, it recommmends me to leave it alone, but I'm almost sure that it's what's causing problems..

twunk_32.exe and twunk_32m.exe seem to be different files. It's probably a worm/virus, but I'm not very knowledgable about this subject.

Hi Joshua,

These are legit w2k files:

twunk_16.exe
twunk_32.exe

The ones you mention are probably not.

The explorer5.vbs sounds fishy.

If it's a trojan and is running out of control, you may be able to stop it by changing the file association.

Associate VBS with notepad.
