Re: what is this process?



Google did not show much at all. Try using something like Process Explorer
or Autoruns to see if there is a publisher associated with that process that
may give you a clue what it is. If no publisher name is shown then it
"could" be malware/spyware and a scan for both using the latest definitions
of whatever you scan with would be a good idea. You could also submit the
file to virustotal to see if anything is found.

I have found a couple of workstations that have the process CID6LNCH.EXE
running on them. It shows in the reg as
HKLM\software\microsoft\windows\current. the file exists in the windows
directory.

I am unable to find any info in the usual places. Any ideas?

Thanks.
