    I have Windows XP HOme SP2, AVG, Zone Alarm free edition, Spybot S&D. When I am logged onto my computer Zone Alarm frequently notifies me that mlnwnmc3.exe is trying to access the internet. I do not know what this is so just hit deny. It asks even when I am not on the connected to the internet. Is this a virus, trojen, spyware, malware, etc? I have tried to google it and checked several different forums but nothing comes up. It doesn't show up when I scan with AVG or Spybot SD or seem to cause problems but It constantly pops up with Zone alarm so I would just like some info. If anyone knows what it is I would greatly appreciate feedback. I hope this is the right location for this thread. If not, please direct me to the right place Thanks!

    Hi,

    I think this is a new one, I haven't heard of mlnwnmc3.exe before, but don't worry, submit the file here:

    http://virusscan.jotti.org/

    (You will have to use the search feature in Windows to locate the file)

    That will confirm whether it is malicious or not, for now deny it access. Make sure to show me the log of what Jotti thinks.

    Cheers.
