DealAssistant.exe & oulwsv.exe
All of a sudden a dialog box pops up in the Systray (above the clock) asking me - Yes or No - to authorize adding these two *.exe files to startup programs. I can swear that I never installed either one.
Revo Uninstaller uninstalled DealAssistant (which it listed among programs), including everything with "dealassistant" in its name from the Registry. Yet its box keeps poping up every ten seconds or so, alternating now with another popup that reads something like "DealAssistant will no longer appear in Startup".
The folder DealAssistant is still present in C\Documents and Settings... and under properties shows its installation and modification time as 9:33 (about 45 minutes ago) and volume of about 1 MB, though its folder contains only a single file: DealAssistant.exe. It is not present in Start>Programs, nor Control Panel.
oulwsc.exe is a single file found in C\Documents and Settings...\Microsoft Windows (?!). Highlightig and deleting it manually is unsuccessful as I am informed that "it's being used by another person or program".
It's gettting late now, tomorrow I'll do two things if the nightmare continues: run my Avast and try to find something about these rascals on line.
If anyone has other suggestion, they are more than welcome.
