Tech Clinic / Questions - ctfmon.exe running process.
« on: April 04, 2007, 10:28:50 PM »
Hey there, I would first like to say thanks in advance to anyone who will bother reading this, so without further a due - Thanks!
Now, for some time now I see this process running called ctfmon.exe, it seemd slightly suspicous as I had no idea what it was. I ran a search over the website and started reading around several websites saying it is a process related somewhat to Microsoft Office. Now, I do have Microsoft Office installed but some websites said it might be some kind of a trojan or worm spyware kind.
So my question is, is it a threat?
