rundll is added to the system as a result of the LOXOSCAM virus that is a backdoor Trojan that allows a hacker to gain access to the computer. The application is written in the Delphi programming language. Do you have any anti-virus protection running?

Is RUNDLL the entire name of the file? There is a legitimate XP system file
called rundll32.exe.

The winupd.dll file is a known parasite. See the following website for
information and removal instructions.

After you have cleaned thgis parasite up, go to this page and click on the
Online Virus Scan link to see what other nasties might be lurking on your
system.
