What is this file?

[Draggar]

Everytime I book Winme, I get 'not enough memory to run application winkceg.exe .

I have 512MB ram. It is running out of the windows/system directory, and every time I remove it from the startup tab in msconfig, after I hit apply, close it and re open msconfig, its checked off again.

If I CTRL-ALT-DEL I will not see it running.

Anyone have any idea what this file is? I can't find it anywhere on the internet.

Thanx!

Odd, I searched for the file and it couldn't be found. So I went into regedit, searched for it, found one instance of it somewhere in the IE registry entries, deleted it, and now my system rebooted fine.

*shrug*

Still, anyone know what it is / was?

it may have been an ISP file used to configure software for the service.. like proxies or something. It could also have been a virii of some sort.

If it was in the IE area of the registry it was probably some sort of spyware...

Well, thanx to Housecall, its all gone now.

I'll just have to keep an eye on a credit card for awhile, I think I used it once when I noticed that error message popping up.

there's a great proggie from lavasoft called adaware.. it will scan your puter and remove any spyware that's installed. the first time i ran it it found 157 diff things. i run it on a semi-daily basis now and it finds anywhere from 5-30 things. you should go grab it.
