I recently found a app called hjbfec.exe in c:\winnt\system32, but cannot find a discription or info for it anywhere. Does anyone have a suggestion as to what it might be, etc?

Nope, not familiar. Not a normal Windows file. Could be a virus or something.
My only thought is for you to run STRINGS against the file.

STRINGS will display all clear text in the file. Maybe something in the file will tell you more about it.

Could be what Joseph states. I would also update your virus scanner and run it see if it finds anything and hopefully it will delete the file.

Also run either spybot serarch & destroy or adaware. If you dont have them you can download them cnet make sure you update them and run them. They will clean up any highjacking that has been gonig on.
