    Looks like the virus infection. One of the Moderators will probably transfer you to the Malware & Virus section. Best of luck Neil.:eek:

    Do you have a Microsoft Lifecam?
    That executable would be running from the proper directory if you do

    vvx1000.exe is a Microsoft file for certain Web cameras. If have a laptop, that file may be part of the Windows installation as provided by the laptop manufacturer.
