Strange background process running

Guest

All of a sudden I am getting a window of my address book emails popping up as
a long list. The title of the box is ERROR. The window is non-scrollable.
I looked into the Task Manager and the application listed is ERROR. In the
process running lists _re_file.exe. I searched for files and found _re_file
in C:\Windows and _re_file.exe-113C48CC.pf in C:Windows\prefetch.

I have run a virus and spyware check and both are clean. Any ideas on why
this ERROR window is popping up now?

You got a bad one... doing a google for "_re_file.exe" turned up....
Results 1 - 10 of about 259 for _re_file.exe. (0.32 seconds)

There's directions there to delete the beast...
