Hello.
Recently I had a problem with some Windows XP applications behaving
erratically or failing at startup. This behavior suddenly after a reboot a
few days ago.
I traced the problem to a program called hhyfe.exe which was running. I
have no idea where it came from. The file date was in-between the last
reboot and the one previous to that. It existed in c:\windows and
c:\windows\prefetch.
I deleted the program in Safe Mode and that restored normal function to my
system.
I can't find any reference to this program anywhere on the Internet. I
looked at ProcessLibrary.com, Symantec Support, Microsoft Knowledge Base and
a Google search. Spybot, Spysweeper, Microsoft's brand new AntiSpyware
program, Norton Antivirus 2005 and Norton Internet Security 2005 failed to
detect the presences of this program or identify it.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.
