Myndfyr | This pops up randomly. Spy++ says that it's part of the explorer.exe process! [img]http://www.jinxbot.net/pub/entnetpw.gif[/img] When I press escape: [img]http://www.jinxbot.net/pub/blank.gif[/img] Any thoughts? | May 26, 2005, 8:42 AM |
Ban | Did you check for any strange backround processes? | May 26, 2005, 2:51 PM |
LW-Falcon | How long has it been doing this? | May 26, 2005, 3:57 PM |
iago | Probably a dumb question, but have you done a spyware/virus scan lately? If not, do it :P | May 26, 2005, 9:14 PM |
Myndfyr | Hrm, that's odd, I thought I'd mentioned that. The system checks clean for virii and spyware. Yes, I checked the background for any odd processes. I found none. Like I said, it appears that the window is coming from explorer.exe, although I suppose something could be using code injection. | May 26, 2005, 10:09 PM |
iago | Yeah, explorer.exe can be infected with spyware and stuff. Tried Googling the text in the messagebox? What happens if you type in a username/password and hit ok? Have you tried packetlogging it? | May 26, 2005, 11:54 PM |

I'm at work and can't remember where it goes to offhand, and I can't make the box appear at will. | May 26, 2005, 11:55 PM |
K | What OS are you running? If your OS supports it, delete or rename explorer.exe and let system restore do its thing. | May 27, 2005, 12:08 AM |

Null | Its defiently a 'jack' or a 'hook' of somesorts. malicious. | May 27, 2005, 3:32 AM |
Myndfyr | Okay, I think I figured it out, and oddly, I think it's almost by design. I noticed that it would happen when I navigated to specific folders. It frequently happened when I'd navigate to my home folder on my other Windows partition. I also noticed that the display of the folder would change (it was in thumbnails view) after I closed the dialog. The folder that changed appearance was "My Documents." There were two thumbnails it displayed -- one image that I had made myself, and another one that I didn't really recognize, but thought looked like a CD case. I navigated to the My Music folder within My Documents, where I stored some music. I didn't see anything, so I turned off the "Hide Protected Operating System Files" option, and sure enough, one of the ultra-hidden files was the CD cover for Paul Coleman - Let it Go. Anyway, I still don't know why it was doing this. I have some idea, though -- a couple packet dumps in SSL indicated something to do with Passport. Since I don't have Windows Messenger on this Windows installation, and I've never integrated my Passport account with this Windows installation, I think it's some attempt to transfer *some* data to Passport, or something. Here's a partial dump. Sorry I didn't include to/from or the Passport SSL stuff. It's just weird. But I managed to make it stop.
