there is a .exe file on my comp right now "kyvwca.exe" that i can find
in the "system 32" folder, and i have attempted to delete in safe mode,
however simply 5-20 seconds later the file will reappear as if i hadnt
even touched it

i ran numerous spyware, malware, virus scans on my computer during safe
mode and campe up with nothing

i also have done a search for 'kyvwca' on the files on my computer and
only have come up with the one file in the 'system 32' folder


how do i get rid of this executable, im almost positive its spyware, i
think its the reason for my cursor always having the 'timer' or
'waiting' symbol up but still running at full speed

just wondering what to do...?
 
Open Explorer, highlight the file, right-click, select Properties. Is there
some kind of identifying name that may tell you if this file belongs to a
program?

Try this: Disable system restore (you will loose all your previous
restore points) restart in safe mode and delete the file. Restart
normally, re-enable system restore. Sometimes these nasties hide out in
the system restore folders, and put themselves right back in the fray.
Best,
