hi every one i am a new member to this form.

I have a file called a.exe in my system dir.It always starts when the system starts.
I noticed it in the task manager.And found the name strange.So i immeadiately deleted tht file.

Does anybody know about it or is it any custom build trojan by some one.

Did you try googling it?

It's a leftover from some ABetterInternet program. It'll mark itself as Systray in the O4 entries of a HJT log.

Get Ad-aware from the link in my signature. Install it, run it, and update the reference file, then scan with it and kill what it finds.

If you want, post a HijackThis log to the Malware Removal forum.

It may also be IRC-Worm.Win32.Rodal.a. It's a fairly recently discovered worm.
