wauclt.exe
I just know this is posted in the wrong place but..
I am currently following the procedure for posting my Hijackthis log but in the mean time I have a question.
In my Task Manager there is a program (or whatever it might be) that I did not recognize, it is called wauclt.exe, when I do a search for it on Microsoft it has warnings back in 2004 and prior that state this is an immediate threat and must be removed. When I try to follow their instructions for removal they have a lot of options for the different operating systems. Here is the problem it never has an option new enough for my system. It only offers support up to XP SP1 which I imagine was the latest available in 2004. When I search for threads about this particular "program" in the threads here a person mentioned it specifically, yet in receiving assistance the person helping did not (at all) think this was a threat. The thread was very new (today if I remember correctly) so is it no longer a threat? Is it something I do not need to concern myself with? Well while waiting for a reply I am going to continue the procedure for turning in a hijack log.
Thanks for your assistance.
Jeff
