    (Mod Note: Member has posted a hijackthis log, which has been merged into this current thread (see post #2) - snap)


    I run Win Patrol, it let me know that a Internet Explorer Helper " related.htm " wanted to run from C:\Windows\web\related.htm I said no since I did not know anything about it. I ran adaware after this and nothing showed up. What is this?

    I also ran SpyBot search and destroy and it came up with these, tried to delete them, but when I reboot and rerun SB they seem to be right back, what gives?

    Advised to post my Hijackthis log.

    After having ran Adaware not show up with the DSO exploits, only SpyBot, I have run both as advised by another Senior Member. Followed all the steps that the thread # 15913 had told me to do. SpyBot said it removed the DSO exploits but when I rebooted and ran it again they were back. Also earlier yesterday a related.htm tried to run, but I wouldn't allow it. So here is both the SpyBot log, and the Hijackthis log.

    I removed my Wan Dns numbers in my HJT log while I await someone to vie the SB log and the HJT log.

    Would Like to say Thank You. Without this forum and all the sections that we have available to use to learn we would be complely lost and open prey. I commend all of you for the work and time that you put in on this site.

    Looked at the resources running, and noticed an uh oh!!!!

    As in an earlier post it was suggested that I was wasting a lot of resources, so I decided to go in and look to see what was running. I pressed CTRl-Alt_Del. I then noticed that there is explorer.exe running under User name ( My log in Name), CPU 00 Mem Usage 27,348K, but I also noticed there is another running but spelt differently " IEXPLORE.EXE " under user name ( My log in Name) CPU 00 Mem Usage 25,960.

    So I ran my updated Norton Antivirus, Adaware, and SpyBot.
    Checked againts a startup list that I have, and that is as confusing as heck on this one o_O?

    Should there be 2 running?

    Hi donna68ca,

    Explorer.exe is the browser you use to look up files on your computer (or on your workgroup etc.)
    Iexplore.exe is Internet Explorer. The one you use to browse the internet.

    Both are nothing to worry about.

    Regards,

    Pieter
