multiple taskeng.exe
Did you ever find a solution to this problem? Every few minutes, another taskeng.exe starts up, with a command line like this:

taskeng.exe {77524FE1-5C75-41D4-8123-A889891B3C94}

Every time the parameter is different, but I haven't been able to find any of the values in the curly braces in the registry or anywhere as a file on the computer.

I definitely feel hijacked as well. I have Vista SP1 RC1 Refresh installed, so I'm not sure if that is causing the problem.

One thing I did notice: if you run Vista in safe mode, the problem does NOT occur. So I've been using the process of elimination to try to figure out which service/driver/etc is the the guilty party, but it takes a while...

Anyone else out there with the same problem?

Thanks,
Nick
