Users Opinions

no user		Added by FakeMessage/AdRotator adware. Note - this is not the legitimate services.exe process which is always located in the System (9x/Me) or System32 (NT/2K/XP) folder and should not normally figure in Msconfig/Startup! This file is located in an "Inetsrv" subfolder 0 0 Report Abuse
