ALIEN INVASION ???

[Guest]

I was running Trend Micro PC-cillin virus scan, I happened to notice a
H-U-G-E entry being scanned ... entitled "C:\Uploads\ ..." and there is a
tremendous size of items being scanned...and have never seen these files
before.
I have looked all over the pc for this "Upload", and can't find anything.
The files are ALL .zip files.
Does anyone have any idea what this is, and where it is coming from ????

---Thanks for any help ----

I might add a P.S. to this----
They streak by so fast it is difficult to catch some of the names of the
files, but the size is tremendous, and it is taking about 1 1/2 for the virus
scan to go through and review EACH of these files.

You may have to have Hidden files and folders set to display.

Open C:\Uploads and see what's in it.

Start | Run |

Paste...

C:\Uploads

into the Open box.

Click OK.

Look around.

The only Upload folder that I have is...

C:\WINDOWS\PCHealth\UploadLB
---

To display Hidden files and folders...

Start | Settings | Control Panel | Folder Options | View tab
Check:
Display the contents of system folders
Show hidden files and folders
UNCheck:
Hide protected operating system files
Apply | OK

[[Hidden files and folders will appear dimmed to indicate they are not
typical items.]]

Hope this helps. Let us know.
