so I noticed a flash game playing slow on my computers so I opened up the task manager, and found this little program wkyhia.exe running. I don't know what it is, but then again I don't know what most of the stuff running in the task manager is. I can't pull pup Microsoft security essentials. Is this a virus that MSSE can't get rid of?

So, I also notice that even though I can't start MSSE (it starts to open, appears in the bottom bar, then dissapears) that it works fine in windows safe mode.
