ok, so lately my computer's been acting really weird.

I've run virus scans and found nothing, I've run ad-aware and found just the usually tracking cookies.

But today I was looking at my running processes and found a file called wt32exe.exe in my windows\system32\ directory.
There's a number of things that make this look suspicous to me, namely the file name and the fact that its priority level is real time, and it also has no copy right information.

So i'm wandering if i can kill this process without killing my computer?

It's another Spyware killer, kills some stuff that Ad-aware wont, don't know the link, search for some of Akak's recent posts, he put the link up recently.

Right click the file and select Properties, then switch to the Version tab. As you click through the items in this tab, you should be able to see a full name of the file from which you can guess what it's for. If it's legit, it'll have a version tab and you'll see the company that wrote it, it's name (ala, 'Windows Terminal 32' or something).
