Hey all
Whilst looking at the start up programmes on my computer, I noticed this. Can anyone tell me what this start up is ?
Thanks in advance.

Looks suspicious. I would run anti-virus scan on that folder, and disable that for startup
Check taskmanager to see if any suspicious processes are running. -
Likely a virus or other crapware.

I checked the process, nothing to be found suspicious of. I did however remove a few viruses few days ago. Not sure if that would have been traces left behind ?
My Anti virus didn't pick it up now, after scanning the folder, but have now disabled it on start up. -
Nice!
I particularly like this one shown here

you should be suspicious of anything running out of a temp. dir
most likely a left over entry from malware -
close all programs.
click start > run
type %temp% and hit enter

Thanks, I did that, only a few files couldn't be deleted. I did a scan in safe mode using Spybot and found a registry key 'sexvid' goodness knows where that came from.
