WEll, Droppyale, now that I think of it I have seen that crappy process running on my system, but didn't know if it was a real Windows System process or not, I'm going to delete it.

It sounds like a virus to me, the fact that you are online for 30min and everything seems to be fine, doesn;t mean it can't be a virus...

u gotto run Antivirus and Spam software to be sure.

Hmm, I don't have that file in that folder, jsut one in the System32 Directory, I did run a virus scan a week ago and it didnt find anything on my computer, but I did see that file in my running processes. Is that a Windows Process or not that is in the System32 directory?

I know, I meant to say that I had that file running in my background for at least a month, the program never picked it up.
Also there is a rundll32.exe in my System32 Folder, is that supposed to be there?

rundll32.exe is usually something extra... might be bad or good.

so you have to update your antivirus and spam software and run them.

thanks GroundZero!!!
I hope that works, that sounds just like the problem, I knew it just was a security hole in Windows.
