BikeJugs.exe? in Startup Menu

chaddy7604

When trying to restore my daughters Dell laptop performance by removing programs that start automatically using the System Configurationtool (Msconfig.exe) I came across this:-

"StartUp Item" BikeJugs
"Command" C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\online atom thunk mfcd\BikeJugs.exe

Operating System Windows XP SP2, Virus Checker AVG, Adaware & Spybot in use.

Not sure what this BikeJugs is? Done a search in Google, can't seem to find anything about it.

Can anyone enlighten me please. Thanks in advance.

Surely that's an easy question. Does it sound like something your daughter would run, or want to run? Does she recognise it?

Sounds a bit dodgy to me. Have you tried scanning just that file with avg?

Cheers Guys
Still finding my way around XP as an operating system, give me a Mac & OSX anyday, you don't get any of this messing you get with a PC
Will be running AVG on it and visiting a few virus forums at the weekend when I get some free time, thanks for the comments
