where and how

[ohms18k]

this file MSMGT.exe was stored in my windows dir? It is tied to a program called MS T-Media Display. I went to add and remove programs and repeatedly removed this thing off my computer but it keeps coming back after reboot. I was thinking it might have came as junkware with my new hardware, so I check all the software for the hardware and no sign of MSMGT. Frustrated because I don’t know how this file got there. I did find some info about it being some kind of spyware running through port 21. I finally got it off, but man I hate not knowing how that file got on my computer.

Anyone else know of this file?
