Hello,

I came back to work this morning and found my computer - left on at night- a
bit sluggish. I had been using AZESUS to download some files overnight.

I found a wisptse.exe file lurking in the background. Did a search and it
was located in the system32 directory. Fine, but lets scan it. That was
strange, first time I saw it. I do have microsoft wireless optical mouse but
doesn't use wisptse.exe.

Used AVG to scan it- but nothing was done. Nothing AVG didn't appear to come
on.

I did it several times with the same result.

I tried AVG on other files/folders - AVG was AWOL.

I did a full scan. And the menu screen showed AVG scanning - but no files
appeared to be scanned.

I switched the machine off - unplugged the internet access points. Turned it
back on.

Used services.exe to turn off HID (Human interface devices)

Did an update of AVG and then used it, then Spybot, then Adware and later
TrendMicro Online scanner to do a search, all showed negative results.

Any idea what happened?

Wilde
