Other instance of AolFix> AolFix.exe:
The AolFix.exe process can be a file added by the W32/Sdbot-ABJ worm, which connects your computer to an IRC server where it sits on a channel awaiting commands. You can confirm its location. If it locates in other folders rather than in the program folder, it is a great risk to the computer system security. We strongly recommend you to remove it immediately from the system startup list, clear it away from your system and scan your computer to ensure it is totally safe again.
Recommendation:
The AolFix.exe process is not an essential file to the computer system. It is a user invoked program and a normal part of PC operations. You can disable it or even remove it from the system startup list in order to save more resources and speed up the system boot. If you need to use Aol Instant Messenger Fix, you can launch it manually.

Run on Gateway Astra computers, and maybe a few others. Designed to repair a bad registry key in Gateway computers that would not allow AOL to run correctly. Not seen much any more and should only run once
