Malwarebytes loads mystery icon on taskbar (attached) after reboot


Recommended Posts

Last week I ran Malwarebytes. It informed me that it found one item and that it needed to reboot to remove it. After rebooting my system loaded a mysterious task bar button. (I uploaded it as an attachment to this post) It looks like a square with text and a balloon with a question mark in front.

I have looked in task manager and no program is listed as running. I have looked at the processes running, but it is hard to know what process it may be.

Any help would be appreciated

running windows xp

thanks

Hi mobileguy and Welcome to Malwarebytes.

I'm not sure what that icon is or where it came from. Probably the best thing to do is follow the directions in this topic: Available Assistance for Possibly Infected Computers

Someone can assist you in double-checking that your system is not infected and possibly help with detection of what this icon is from or for as well.

Thank you
