hi everyone, This is my problem. For a few days as I opened the internet explorer and surf for a while it would suddenly flicker a few times and then it would just shut down. Also any downloads I was downloading would stop. I then decided to take a look at the task manager processes and I saw this G3G16dX7.exe.It would flicker on and off.Just like my ie explorer would do before shutting down.So I ended this process and then I entered the registry and deleted any traces of it there.After doing all that I was able to surf and download again without any problems.But here's the catch everytime I reboot it re-appears again. So I have to do the above process all over again. I've tried a number of anti-spyware and anti-virus but none so far can locate its source. thanks

If the antivirus is not showing it as a virus, then it is more than likely not a virus. If you have to do that everytime, then you might want to consider scanning your system in safe mode and see if that brings anything up, since in safe mode only the necessary services are brought up. Just do a ad-aware and antivirus scan and see if it can locate anything. Google has nothing on this .exe file. Jim R

Run msconfig and check the Startup tab for any suspicious programs.
