Okay... what the heck are these?

Well, I just downloaded Spybot 1.3, which found a spying program classified as "Alexa related" (which, of course, I got rid of). Now of course, I couldn't help taking a look at all those nice new features. One of them was the list of things with uninstall programs - and there, in that list, were things I had never seen before and never heard of before, "Chlen-us" and "ComicChat". Either of them could hide something nasty (I've got my bets on "ComicChat", if anything). Do any of you guys know what the blazes these things are?

Internet explorer is most likely the alexa related....harmless...comes with all internet explorers.

Seems to be part of IE.

Googled it and came up with this,

It's old version of IE though.
