Why the process name of a process initiated by rundll.exe is not set to the
name of the dll, ocx which rundll.exe host/load ?
It will be more clear when looking at the prcoess list....
 
Probably because XP uses rundll32.exe and not rundll.exe.

If you have tasklist.exe, you do if you have XP Pro.

tasklist /m /fi "IMAGENAME eq rundll32.exe" >C:\rundll32.txt

What's the suspicious Rundll32.exe process

It wasn't designed to. Your option, as I have noted, is to use a utility
that does. Wesley's tasklist command will give you a simple text file that
shows library files (dll's) loaded by the 32-bit rundll32.exe.
