Hi there!

I have a problem with my windows xp pc and iexplore.exe.

7 months ago i thought this problem was fixed but now i get random typing noise and the sound lower itself down withouot noticing.

Before i had some very strange adds but when i looked on the task manager iexplore.exe was popping up. I am using firefox mostly and i never used internet explorer on this machine.

I downloaded ZoneAlarm and blocked the process iexplore.exe for a while because malwarebytes and other spyware/virus software didn't find anything. It stood steady for 7 months until it started to appear again.

Random typing noises, like those on the keyboard, main sound cut, and on the task manager iexplore.exe pops up again! i can delete it all i want it just comes back...please help me!

Hello.

Let's try an ARK scan.

Please download Rootkit Unhooker and save it to your Desktop

Alternate Link 1 (.exe file)

Alternate Link 2 (zipped file)

Alternate Link 3 (.rar file)

Double-click on RKUnhookerLE to run it
Click the Report tab, then click Scan
Check Drivers, Stealth and uncheck the rest
Click OK
Wait until it's finished and then go to File > Save Report
Save the report to your Desktop

Copy the entire contents of the report and paste it in a reply here.

Note - you may get this warning.
"Rootkit Unhooker has detected a parasite inside itself!
It is recommended to remove parasite, okay?"

If you do, please proceed normally.
