IE And Thunderbird Start On Their Own
Lately I've been seeing multiple, 5 or 6, entries for Iexplore.exe and Thunderbird.exe in my Task Manager. I haven't started these programs and nothing is showing on the desktop or task bar. The entries are all using 64k memory and no computer resources. I've scanned with Nod32, Trojan Remover and Spybot and can find nothing that would cause this activity. My Windows and Nod32 are up to date. I don't notice any ill effects when this happens. No performance losses and no hangs. I am able to close the entries with Task Manager, but they come back eventually. The entries were not there when the Hijack log was run. If no one can see anything, I'll try to run when the entries are in Task Manager. They never happen when you want them to.SP3 (WinNT 5.01.2600)http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=69157 http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=54896 http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=54896 http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=69157 http://www.bankofamerica.com http://www2.verizon.net/help/fios_se...zTCPConfig.CAB http://utilities.pcpitstop.com/da/PCPitStop.CAB http://www.update.microsoft.com/wind...?1193770297524 http://www.update.microsoft.com/micr...?1193780902062 http://das.microsoft.com/activate/ca...ail/DASAct.cab http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/nos/gp.cab http://fpdownload2.macromedia.com/ge...sh/swflash.cab http://plugin.driveragent.com/files/driveragent.cab HTTP Server (EhttpSrv) - ESET - C:\Program Files\ESET\ESET NOD32 Antivirus\EHttpSrv.exe

I'm in Massachusetts. The DNS servers belong to Verizon. They are probably in Colorado.

Hi edjerKaspersky WebScanner Click on “Accept” If your pop –up blocker blocks any windows from opening. Click Run on the window that opens .Windows Vista users you must open the web browser using the Run as Administrator command.The program will launch and then begin downloading the latest definition files:
Under Scan on the left side.Click on My Computer
This will start the program and scan your system.
Click the “Scan Report” On the left side.
The scan will take a while so be patient and let it run.
Once the scan is complete it will display if your system has been infected. Click the Save Report As button, and in the Browse dialog box, type a name for the scan report file that you want to create and select its type Text file . Click OK to save the file.:
Save the text file to your desktop.

I did the critical areas scan online. The report came up as a blank page. Supposedly, it found 2 problems but I don't know what they are. Probably cookies but I'm not about to do the scan again. Took hours.

Kaspersky doesn't normally detect cookies.
