1) Download the following item...
Adaware SE http://www.lavasoftusa.com/ 2) Update Adaware with latest definitions. 3) If you are using WinME or WinXP, disable System Restore http://vil.nai.com/vil/SystemHelpDoc...SysRestore.htm 4) Reboot your PC into Safe Mode 5) Using Adaware SE, perform a Full Scan of your platform and clean/delete any parasites found. 6) Restart your PC and perform a "final" Full Scan of your platform using Adaware 7) If you are using WinME or WinXP,Re-enable System Restore and re-apply any System Restore preferences, (e.g. HD space to use suggested 400 ~ 600MB), 9) If you are using WinME or WinXP, create a new Restore point 10) Please report back your results Dave "vb" <> wrote in message news:OsydnU2vlcWHXPncRVn-... | I have zone alarm telling me that javasys.exe is trying to access the | internet.

What if an infector was renamed to be the named file; javasys.exe ?
This is often the case of SVCHOST.EXE which is the target name (or variations of it) of many infectors and parasites.
