I have this program running in task manager that I'm
trying to identify. it's ojuusl.exe.... it's got Windows
PIF settings in the properties. I'm not familar w/this at
all. Any ideas?? Is it okay to just delete it. It's
located in my SYSTEM32 directory so I'm a bit hesitant.Any
one have ANY ideas??
 
Does properties, of the exe, give any indication.
Its not a win* sys file
Presumably you have an AV app, run Adaware and SpyBot?
 
No, it does not. The PIF Settings say this....
Autoexec filename: %systemRoot%\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT
Config filename: %SystemRoot%\SYSTEM32\CONFIG.NT

I haven't run either of the two of those programs. Guess
that should be my next step regardless...

What do you make of the PIF Settings?? I haven't ever
dealt w/that before....
 
No dont try to run these, open them in NotePad, ensure the 'allways use' is
not ticked.
There will also be the same files in the Repair Folder, check that the Files
in System32 folder are identical.
It would appear that the 'exe' is attempting to run in dos compatibility
mode ie its a 16bit or dos exe.
Since the exe is not a win* file you can delete it, it will finishup in
recycle bin. If all yr apps run OK then its not to much of a problem.
However as I said have you run an AV scan? run Adaware and SpyBot?
