xrssflqm

Was trying to find why Intrenet Explorer would not load and found a new file in the Windows\Systems folder called xrssflqm.exe. Moved this file and all seems OK. Anyone know what it is? (It seemed to load itself from the net a couple of days ago)

Hi Tone,

It's a random file name, almost certainly viral. If you still have it on your machine, then go here and click in the little box that has browse beside it and paste this line into it,

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\xrssflqm.exe

then press submit.
That sends a copy of the file to their virus checker to se if it is bad.

Let me know what it says, and I'll find out more for you. If it does come up clear, then it's still going to be suspicious, but I'll talk you through what to do, when and if. :)

Cheers

Liam
