Help with iexplore in processes --possible trojan?--
Quantum:
It would be useful if you could find the location of the .exe and delete it. Or see if there are any related DLLs and research in to them or just plain kill them from your computer. I actually remember when self-regenerating spyware came on to the scene, managed to manually get it off my computer after a week long battle and none of the spyware communities had caught up with it yet.
Not much advice I can offer than that, just try and take a snapshot or something when it is there and work out anything it relates to or links to, try the latest best spyware and virus scanners (ad-aware, Spybot, Nod etc..).
chip!:
paste out your hijack this log...
im pretty sure it'll be easy to spot what's forcing iexplore.exe to spawn threads..
TheNightWatchman:
Ok. I've tried scanning with Spybot, etc and nothing.

Ok i see there is that "Hopeforkbeep" one which it was going on about last time, I removed that in HiJack before but I didn't delete the file (and it came back). I'll search for it now and see if that helps.
TheNightWatchman:
lol ok that solved the problem... ended up in Application Data and there was a random folder called "Info Acid" with 4 exes in it. Deleted the folder... ended the processes it all good.
I swear that wasn't in the HiJack the first time ;)
Unless I post that they're all back I should be good
Thanks a lot
BTW: Hopefully there's not something in the HiJack that's "bad"... i assume the rest other than the hopeforkbeep.exe were fine?
