Unknown new program requested access?

[Norman R. Cross]

Firewall identified a new program in C:\Windows\System 32 folder as
requesting access to internet. I have blocked access until I can identify
the program. It showed a creation date of this morning & did not install any
new software.

The program is identified as zzmlizpp.exe

Did a search on Google & AltaVista along with McAffee & Symantec sites and
found no references. Do not want to completely delete the program until I
identify the
program. Has anyone heard of this program?

In any case, it is not a Windows program. I should delete or rather relocate
it in another folder.

You have some malware on your computer. It is common for malware to have
random names and the fact that your searches produced no links
indicates that the executable is probably malware.

Answered your other post in more detail. Briefly, this is probably
malware.

Many apps aka trojans/viruses create random file names to confuse the
user. Make sure your system is clean, then either renamame or delete the
offender.
