TWO "aolsoftware.exe"s in my task manager! help!

[Poordan]

Hi there!

My ctrl-alt-del task manager keeps showing 2 aolsoftware.exe's
running. I know one of them has to be a virus or something. One of
them is usually taking up 3 times the memory as the other, and I end
that process and my computer seems to start running smoothly. But I
don't know how to find it, and searching for it doesn't bring it up.
It always comes back again.


Any advice? Not the most computer-savvy person btw...

I would uninstall aol then reinstall it.However to shutdown services,go to
run,type:Msconfig Locate start-up tab,edit...

I JUST recently uninstalled and installed AOL...I'm not sure if it has
to do with AOL at all.

I went to msconfig and just saw the normal aolsoftware.exe, not the
2nd one..

I already had looked up everything I could find in google about
aolsoftware.exe.


Nothing I found says anything about it listed twice. I looked online
for a very long time in google.
