Anyone know anything about this. ogcwxantssd.exe. My daughter said her zone alarm asked about this and whether to allow it or not. I have googled and found nothing.

Hi

as that file name doesnt seem to bring up any searches of it, and knowing the type of random file names that malware makes, I would suspect it as malware and run the below and remember to start a new thread in the malware forum and attach the logs requested, so that our malware removal experts can review them and help you remove any malware found.

Please read and follow the following READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide and once finished please start a new thread in the Malware Forum plus a guide on how to attach the logs HOW TO: Attach Items To Your Post

Yeah - it is malware . . . one of the new variants of the "rogue" (or fake) antivirus type of infections uses the format of 8 random letters followed by tssd.exe and it is NOT something you want on your PC. Follow Halo's advice and visit the Malware Removal Forum if needed after using the info the 'Read Me First' guide.... good luck!
