Subject: Re: Rundll Problem (Windows XP Home)

Yeah, I found that out in my research, my curiousity was struck. In my research I read about a Trojan Horse so endearly entitled, The Beast, and that one is downright frightening.
Just as a follow up to my message I probably had all sorts of variations of Spyware from the innocent marketing gathering ones (I use the word innocent loosely) to the evil Trojans. What I did though was had my security entirely too low especially concerning ActiveX settings.
I have learned my lesson though, the fact that Spyware of many sorts was able to bring down my PC which is rather robust (for a little over a year old) was quite an eye opener.
Thanks for listening...Carlos
