Yahoo! Powered maned Issue


Question

Hello all,

 

I just had my Windows 7 Aero theme disabled when I was browsing the web, then the fan turned up considerably high. When I opened task manager the Windows Experience Indexer was running (I ran this a long time ago), which is strange since I didn't request it. 

 

When I did a little research I found that it may have been set up as a task. When I opened the task scheduler I found that there was a task set up to run a text document as an executable (calo.txt). The task was named Yahoo! powered maned.

 

I opened the folder which holds the "text" document and found the following files (At the location: C:\ProgramData\{9FC75AA4-1585-D062-9343-4E200901C5EE})

 

aowLC      
calo.txt

hdat1      

hdat2    

lefedo    

litolir

sodi

 

I would post the contents of Calo but it is a lot of text.  I have attached a small sample of the file contents though:

Does anybody have a clue what this could be? It was scheduled to run every hour, however I deleted the task and have quarantined the files. I haven't been able to find anything through a search.

 

Thank you!

Edit:

I have also run the contents of Calo.txt through a hex to ascii converter, however it doesn't reveal anything.

I have the same thing on my computer am I am trying to figure out what it is. Have you found any information? I had a virus a while ago that would randomly open up every file and flood my computer. Wondering if its left from that? My computer doesnt do it now but just a thought
