ereg32.exe
I run Zone Alarm Pro and on checking the Program Control panel I noticed the following entry:
ereg32.exe
It is presently blocked from Internet access and from functioning as a server on the grounds that I do not know if it is a malign influence.
A quick Google search has revealed several references to this file in connection with a virus which was spread via a game included on magazine cover disc. Having just done a complete re-install (please don't intrude on private grief) I think that the machine is pretty clean. The only thing installed from a giveaway disc has been Adobe Acrobat Reader.
The system runs XP.
Norton AV 2004, Adaware and Spybot S & D are all installed and up to date.
Any info gratefully received, Gentlemen.
Thanks in advance
