Hi Desiree - where did you find this file? When you say

No filename? Is your system configured to show file extensions?

Ann Marie- Thanks for the response and question. The system is set up to show file extensions and other .exe programs are running. I found this exe in programs. I also did a virus/hijacker scan thru merijn.com, shows there too.

Thanks
