Hello everyone,
I keep finding this in my task manager under running processes everytime a pop-up comes up. It's obviously spyware I normally have no problem blocking or deleteing this stuff but this one I can't find a darn thing on and it keeps comming back! If I do a search I find it in my C:/windows/prefetch and I delete it but it comes back. "0J0H.EXE 200A7417" is the file and it only appears in the task manager after I get a pop-up. I've tried shutting it down with MS antispyware but it comes back. Any help here would be awsome thanks.

Ok I just found out that this is part of CLARIA spyware, which used to be Gator. It's a new type of spyware that claria the Number one creator of spyware has created. (jackarsses).

You can delete the intire "contents" of the prefetch folder.Those are normally low level spyware and can be removed by running Adaware Se or Spybot normally.
If you think you have bigger problems post a Hijack This log so that the files associated with the virus/spyware/hijacker can be identified. You can download Hijack This at this link http://www.tomcoyote.org/hjt/ then place it into a folder of it's on, such as C:\HJT, so that back up copies can be made and not clutter your desktop or other folders and the backup copies of deleted items can be easily located if needed.
Once saved double click HijackThis.exe, and press "Scan". When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button.
Press that, save the log, Ctrl-A to Select All, and copy its contents into the text editor at this forum.Do not fix anything yet unless you know what you are doing. This is a powerful tool that can crash the computer if used improperly.

gator is very old "parasite". it can be the mutation.
but here are the general gator removal instructions.
