is ALCXMNTR.EXE spyware?
Trogan
London, UK
First off, I'm trying to sort my computer out. I enabled everything in the Startup of MSCONFIG and was checking each startup item for spyware etc. There appears to be two: ALCXMNTR.EXE and Winampa.exe. Are they spyware?
Here my HJT log. Thanks for any help
