    Try a search across the entire disk. And do a search across your Registry.

    Keep us informed to help others.

      Thanks.  This is a great tool.  I have since restarted 
      the SMTP service and after monitoring the file 
      RTFREA~1.exe no longer is flashing up on the processess 
      under task manager.  Neither the PE tool nor Task Manager 
      is showing the file since doing this.  I still want to 
      determine what this file is though.  Anyone have any 
      other ideas?
      Thanks.
