I noticed a new process running. I have only seen it in process' once. I ran a search on my computer and found these. I see jusched.exe running all the time in the process window and have never seen the JUCHECK.EXE before, also the create date is 10/26/09 and not 10/19/08 like the rest of the Java files/

JUCHECK.EXE-366A48E6.pf located in C:/WINDOWS/Prefetch
open with unknown application. Has the icon box with the cogs in it. Created 10/26/09 (Bad?)

Jucheck.exe located in C://ProgramFiles/Java/jre1.6.0_107/bin
Has the orange Java icon next to it. Created 10/19/08 (Good?)

I am thinking the first one listed is a baddie and some kind of virus, malware, trojan etc...

It is not being flagged by spyware. I also have XP on my laptop and JUCHECK.EXE is not any where on there either.

Any info would be greatly appreciated. I just need to know if the one in all caps is valid Java file or if it is pretending to be a Java file. I have got mixed results doing an internet search. Thanks
