Possible spyware??

bjl · Oct 20, 2004

My pc was running very slow, and I had a lot of pop-ups. I have Windows 2000 Pro with Noton Internet Security and Antivirus running. Norton started popping up messages that a process was trying to access the internet. I downloaded SpyBot-S&D and it fixed 21 problems. However, there are still a couple processes running that I am not sure what they are or how to get rid of them. I can stop the process, but they start back up when I reboot my pc. The process are showing up in Task Manager as w>wexec.exe and uhho.exe. Can someone tell me what these are and if needed how to get rid of them. TIA
