I have a processing showing up in my task manager (iexplorer.exe) this is the first time I've seen it. It shows up when I start my computer and is taking up a very large amount of memory. Please tell me how to delete it? I ran hijackthis and it does not even show up there. I also want to know what process could I delete from my start up and how? Below is the scan results from Hijackthis;

iexplorer.exe is Internet Explorer, which is the web browser your using right now. You shouldn't get rid of because you need it.

Thank you.

NO NO NO

explorer.exe is the windows GUI
iexplore.exe is IE

iexplorer is a trojan which masquerades as IE

are you sure thats how it is spelt?

Sorry, it is spelled (iexplore.exe).

oh no, thats IE then which you need

lol my bad. I never use IE so i forgot the exact process name. That could of been bad though, so thx jbennet.

Could you please tell me how to remoxe iexplorer.exe
I am definitely sure this is not IE as i dont use IE I use mozilla firefox i uninstalled IE already anyway.

yeah if its got an R on the end then its malware, not the real one.

This may help I just got done using it go to msn.com and then help to run a free scan. It took a long time to run but when I restarted
iexplorer.com came up 3 times not 20 times
