mdm.exe can also be a trojan.
Update your antivirus software and run a full system scan.
Do the same for whatever anti-spyware applications that you have.
Mdm.exe is also part of *many* other Microsoft software packages.

being in Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VS7Debug. There
are more.
