    [Resolved] MOM.exe

    I have another question. I had to have ATI installed on my computer because my monitor went out and I had to buy a new one. My computer being 3 years old(and apparently ancient) didn't support the new monitors suggested resolution.

    I was just looking to see why it seemed like my paintshop pro was using so much memory when I really have nothing else opened. When I looked at the processes running I saw MOM.exe and googled it. It says on there that that is a keylogger program and that it somehow has something to do with the catalyst control center in ATI.

    Now before I go crazy and start pulling out my hair because I am afraid I am going to have to tear this computer apart again. Is that true? Is it really a keylogger?

    Please say no (and mean it)!! You guys are the only ones that I trust. If I haven't posted this in the correct forum I apologize.

    According to legit sites, nothing dangerous there: http://www.pcpitstop.com/libraries/process/i/MOM.EXE.html
    Disable it through "msconfig ".
