My Norton personal keeps picking up "oatn.exe" trying to access the internet. I've not got the faintest idea what it is. How can i find out?

These two look dodgy....

KILL THEM>>>>>

Of course, if you know what they are then don't. I did a google for those file names and found nothing. A lot of executables find their way to that folder and start each time you boot your pc. A bugger to get rid of (my son used my pc for less than 20 minutes and managed to infest my pc with rubbish).

If you are on broadband, which I see you are, then diallers are not any concern.

PS: I am no expert at reading these log files - only my own - but www.d-a-l.com have a resident log expert if you wanna head over there...
