Default TWO copies of explorer

On Wed, 1 Feb 2006 14:45:31 -0500, "glee"
put finger to keyboard and composed:

Click Start Find File or Folders, search the C: drive for files named
explorer.exe, and post back with their sizes and locations.


I'd suggest searching for exp?orer.*

Some malware attempts to masquerade as Explorer.exe by replacing the
"ell" with an "I" or a "one".

It could also be that the app name you see in the Ctrl-Alt-Del window
is not related to the app's filename.
