Exmodulau.exe, Keeps Wanting To Access The Web

[Related message threads merged by administrator. AG]

Running WindowsXP.

Recently, I have this .exe wanting to access the internet.
I know, ZA keeps asking.

I have no spyware, and not virus ( according to Avast ).

This exmodulau keeps wanting to access the net, each case, it has
a different number in the front of exmodulau.exe. IE: this time the number
might be 36, next time it might be 60, etc.

I've done a google, but nothing has come up.

Any feedback will be appreiciated.

Thanks very much.

Have you heard the joke? Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. :harhar:

WELL, I'm not sure it's a joke. I see it every day right here in these forums. People keep using the same ol' sick program and wonder why they stay infected.

If your AV or selected AS programs are not cleaning up your mess......then by God change programs!!!!

Instead of Avast, you should be using AVG 7.1 FREE and backing it up with a very good Trojan remover.
"Trojan Hunter" is excellent. For 30 days it's free.....that's all you need to clean up a "Dirty" PC.

I've posted the list that I use to keep myself and my hundreds of customers 100% virus and spyware FREE, at least a hundred times already......So here it is again.

**************************************************
These are the programs I use every day to keep my own PC spotlessly clean.
I suggest every person having any Virus or Spyware issues get these programs
and use them immediately.
Do check for updates to all your security software on a DAILY basis.

ANTI-VIRUS PROTECTION:

AVG 7 FREE:
World famous AVG will keep your computer free of viruses, trojans, dialers, etc.

REGISTRY CLEANER:

Easy Cleaner, the best Registry Cleaner I've found so far.

http://personal.inet.fi/business/toniarts/ecleane.htm
Just scroll down to "Download & Installation" and click on the first floppy disk symbol.

FIREWALL:

The XP windows firewall is only a 50% firewall, blocking incoming hackers but doing nothing to stop any ET that's already on your PC from "Phoning Home". It seems like almost every program you install anymore, wants to "Phone Home". It's a good idea to NOT allow this activity. My suggested Firewall to prevent this activity is the FREE version of a world famous product called "Zone Alarm".
ZA can be downloaded from:

************************************************

If you do anything less than what I've outlined here.....you're just wasting your time and ours.

NO ONE program will ever protect you against Spyware. I run six different ones myself.

Go Get Em!
