Program DB3AC636
 

Hi All. Very computer noobish here.

When I go to shut down my computer I get that square dialogue box that you get when a program like pokertracker is nonreponding but it says "program DB3AC636 not responding." It takes several clicks on the end now to get rid of it.

When I check the start-->all programs I don't see this listed.

Anyone know what this is? Is this bad? My computer has been running fair but not great but my virus scans aren't picking anything up.

Thanks.

Search your entire computer for the file and when you find it, does it have a real icon or the generic blank? Where is it located? Generally things this weirdly named are not in the c:\windows\* folders unless they are driver specific. In either case, right click it and goto properties and see what it says about versioning information, who it came from etc. If none of that exists, DESTROY IT!

Its probably some kind of malware thing running the background, they like to give themselves stupid names like this and then the cool thing is, even when you end task, it starts up another under a different name!

Yeah when I end it it sometimes makes me end it again so I think you are right. Searching for it now.
