in the Task Manager, processes is called xxfirefox.exe is - this legitimate?
Upgrade to Firefox 9, when I look in the Task Manager, the name is XXFIREFOX.exe. Firefox has been hijacked or is the new name for the v4?
The main Firefox process is always named firefox.exe in Windows 32-bit operating systems.
I would be very suspicious of a process named XXFIREFOX.exe. My advice is to run a full scan with your anti-virus software, and who does not find a problem if doing a "search > for files and folders" for this executable.

What is w8edc4.exe and winyxci.exe in the Task Manager processes
I see these two exe files in my XP Task Manager process, but Google and Bing cannot find any info on them. I guess they are some kind of virus, but am not sure.
Sometimes, when a malware gets on your system, it will take on a name composed of a few letters and random numbers.
If you can't find them in a search on the Internet and the suspicious look (like those that do) file names, your system probably now has or has had a malware infection.

How to deploy the Task Manager processes
I have install the standalone BPM due to the error of confinguration (could not create the JAVA virtual machine) in Enterprise BPM.
How to deploy the process created in the BPM studio in the fall?
Thank you.After installation of stand-alone, run the "Admin Center".
From there, start the Web Applications of BPM. Once this starts, you should be able to click on the "launch process Admin".
After signing in (user created during installation), click on the 'Projects' link on the left. This will display all of the ongoing projects. From there, you can 'Add' a project using the export created in studio (file-> Export).
* Note: This implies that the installation is complete and the two databases (directory and engine) were created.
For more information, Documentation of Administration (project management) is: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13154_01/bpm/docs65/admin_guide/modules/projects/enterprise/c_Head_Managing_Projects.html

two sometimes three iexplorer.exe. Open the process in the Task Manager
original title: iexplorer.exe.
everytime I open a sometimes three iexplorer.exe two Web site. Open in the Task Manager process is this normal or is one of them not supposed to run?
Hi danielgirard,
1. did you of recent changes on the computer?
2. do you have a security software on the computer?
3. it happens with any site that you open it?
Method 1
Every new Internet Explorer window that you open will create a new entry iexplorer.exe in the Task Manager.
I suggest that you scan the computer for malware or virus infections and check if it helps.
http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
You can also use Microsoft Security databases to scan your computer
http://www.Microsoft.com/security/PC-security/MSE.aspx
Method 2
If the above does not help, then perform the clean boot procedure to verify if a third-party program installed on the computer is the origin of the problem.
To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.
See the link below to learn more about how to clean boot.

Hide or restrict a specific process in the Task Manager
I need to be able to hide or to limit a summer in the Task Manager process. I was wondering if someone could suggest a way to do? or if there is a way to make a backup of beginning of process automatically if a standard user finishes? even better if there is a way to completely hide the process in the Task Manager tab?
I don't want to completely hide the Task Manager, as our users use it for final applications when they crash when myself and other specialists, are not on the site.
Thank you very much

Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update

Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral

each installation.Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install

Explorer Windows has stopped working. Same for the Task Manager.
I have Windows Vista and have had this computer for several years.
I tried to work on something yesterday and I found that all my Office 2007 programs would be would break immediately at the opening, while they were working fine a week ago (the last time we used them). I ran the diagnostic program came not upward with anything and then installed a bunch of windows updates I received automatically. When the computer restarts now, I get a window in the corner that says 'Custom settings', then a window appears and says that Windows Explorer has stopped working. I can ctrl/alt/del and open Manager tasks, but when I try to do no matter what to whom, it also stops working. I not to download anything so I really don't think it is a virus.
I can't open programs or menus, even if I think I can get a screen of command. I ran all the tests in the installation disc and did not get any where or the other.
If anyone can help, I would really appreciate it.
Thank you
Mike
I can show you a workaround until Microsoft fixes their problem.
As soon as you enter the office hit
1-CTRL/ALT/DEL to get into the Task Manager
2. click on the tab Applications (top left corner)
3. click the new button on the task (lower right corner)
4. in the Open box, type explore and click the Enter key
5 do step 3 and 4 once more as quickly as possibleThis should stop the process of recycling the error message
After stops in the process recycling, you can leave the Task Manager and minimize the Explorer window. Also, you should be able to leave the Task Manager and windows Explorer now. If this is not the case, just keep the Explorer minimized window.
You should now be able to use your computer as usual.
Let me know how it works for you. If it works well, spread the word.

Trying to restore the empty desktop icons by the recommendations, I have a white screen with a pointer after login and WELCOME screen. CTRL-SHIFT-ESC gives me the TASK MANAGER. and I returned 'explorer.exe' I then the full desktop with white icons. I need to do this every time I have start or restart the PC. I checked the regedit and the only entry to WINLOG, SHELL is "Explorer.exe" any ideas about a problem? Thank you!
Hi Eric1029,
You can check if the following registry entries are correct.
a. open the start menu, in the search bar type regedit, and then press ENTER.
b. navigate to the following location and check the entries for "Shell" and "Userinit" on the right pane:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
"Shell" ="Explorer.exe" (REG_SZ)
'Userinit"="C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe '.
c. also check if you have the correct permission for this registry key (winlogon)
d. right-click and select permission. Make sure that at least with that you have group administrators, system and installer of confidence with full control and users group read permission.
e. check if you are able to launch explorer.exe in the window running in the Task Manager.
Important: The above method contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.
For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, follow the steps from the link below:

Here you can see the problem. What is this thing?
Hi Benjamin,
Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.
According to the description of the problem some application named QuickActionBox is running and showing in the Task Manager.
If you think that this application is not known to you and you think that's not important, then you can uninstall it in the list of programs. But before you uninstall this application, I recommend to create a system restore point and try to uninstall the application so that if this application is important, then you can come back to this point again.
To create restore point, you can see the article mentioned below.
A restore point is a representation of a stored state of your computer's system files. You can use a restore point to restore system files from your computer to an earlier point in time. Restore points are created automatically by the restore of the system each week and when System Restore detects the beginning of a change to your computer, for example when you install a program or a driver.
You can uninstall a program from your computer if you no longer use, or if you want to free up space on your hard drive. You can use the programs and features to uninstall programs or to change the configuration of the program by adding or removing certain options.
Hope it would help. If problem persists always post back with the current state of your computer and the result of the proposed suggestion, we will be happy to help you.
Kind regards

'system' process in the Task Manager running @ 50 to 100%
Just reinstalled xp family and for some reason, the 'system' process in the Task Manager runs 100% gel about the custom of all the system let me download updates update freezes keyboard and touch pad and wont stop. tried to reinstall it 4 times same thing every time
You need to find the specific system process that takes all (there are a lot of threads related to the 'System' process) of the CPU resources and slow down your PC.
To do this Process Explorer, try:
http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/Sysinternals/bb896653.aspx
SysInternals Forums: http://forum.sysinternals.com/Worth reading: the process system CPU spikes
http://blogs.technet.com/markrussinovich/archive/2008/04/07/3031251.aspxOnce you have Process Explorer installed and running:
In the task bar, select view and check 'show process Tree.
as well as the options 'display the lower pane '.
Move the cursor of your mouse over any column in the right pane and
Make a right click and check the following boxes:
"Command line" and "Version".
(This will provide some of the detailed information you need)Then click on the CPU column to sort processes by CPU usage %.
Then click on extend the process 'System' or 'Explorer' to expand and identify the specific subprocess using most or all the resources.
Then click the sub-process or process listed under the system process that is using most or all the CPU %.
Once the process or subprocess is highlighted, do a right click and select the options listed: online search. This should bring that out there on the web about this process.Note: some entries as solution, System (as explained above) process Explorer and svchost entries can should be extended to view details (sup process), in this case click on the + to the left of the entrance.

When I click on task manager it happens in screen '' current process. '' The only choice I have is to show all users process or to complete a process. I have to hit the ESC key to exit and can not navigate to other functions of Manager tasks. I remember that you try to use the system restore to solve this problem for a long time (at least 2 years ago) and he has not solved it. Just thought it might settle through updates system over time. This isn't something, I use often but I have the function to return if possible. Any ideas? the task manager can be downloaded and re-installed or maybe a registry setting problem?
