Learn German (or find an online translator) and check here:

I have no idea what's being said, but it mentions your process.

edit:

I used babelfish.altavista.com to translate from German, and here's the semi-unintelligible garbage that popped out:

"I wanted to still say that I the file "C:\WINDOWS\V0250Mon.exe" on your recommending, with virus-totally scanning leave had and these is probably clean."

It is not on my machine, and the only Google hit (in German) suggests it is a trojan. If it is not in your Add/Remove Program List, you can probably safely remove it. I suggest also running Ad Aware to see if that removes it. ... JD Hurst

I speak German as well.

He says that he had the file scanned by "Virustotal" and it says that it is clean.

Otherwise there is NO information given on the link mentioned above.

EDIT: he removed the trojan (other file) and V0250Mon.exe, after a couple of days both showed up and some more. This does NOT mean that V0250Mon.exe is a trojan though! (The other file was). So... basically he has no idea, nor does google provide an answer to it.

You might want to grab Process Explorer after doing a scan of your system with Prevx to check. :)

Chris, does prevx play nice with other programs, like Windows Defender and AVG? Anything special I should do before installing and running it?
