I m using windows xp professional russian version. and from few days i m facing a explorer problem. (the screenshot is attached here). How can i solve this problem, and i m using kaspersky as antivirus.. and it detect that explorer.exe is transferring some hidden information... so it block it (explorer.exe) when i allow or deny it , it runs fine... but that message come in every minute... and allowing or denying that message several time my explorer.exe get terminated automatically....

How are you opening this page? Are you using Start > Run, or opening Internet Explorer and then typing in the URL manually in the address bar?

Otherwise, this looks like overly agressive antivirus, as the problem it's reporting isn't a problem at all, it's LRPC it appears (perfectly normal between explorer.exe and iexplore.exe)...

It could just be overly agresive behaviour on the part of Kaspersky, but I'd look a little deeper first. I'd do a thorough malware check (using a number of different products, including spyware tools, rootkit tools and a second opinion antivirus such as bitdefender online or clamwin) there are a number of freeware options so you shouldn't need to spend any money.

Also its probably worth contacting Kaspersky to see what they think.

If you disable kapersky, does the problem occur? Also, when you do a full scan of your machine, does it come back as clean from kapersky?

Based on the first screenshot, the destination IP address was 82.98.235.216...

A quick search on that IP address brought up this:

Given the referrer in the first image, and IE title bar in the second image implicate inetseeker.com, a search on "inetseeker vundo" brings up:

The above references have detailed guides on how to go about removing the adware, if that's what you have.
