LuCallbackProxy.exe

For the last three weeks or so, i have noticed a serious degradation of the
speed of my machine. I have a lattitude x1 with xp and sp2 and am running
outlook as my e mail. On Start up, if i look at the task manager
(Cntr+alt+del) i can monitor cpu usage. and it runs near 100% for a while
the process i see is LuCallbackProxy.exe using about 500k of memory and
there are two or three of them, then they go away. I have tried to delete
the process, but i can't get access. I have searced the drive for the file
and can't find it. I run norton 360 as my security and have run the virus
scan several times, no joy. Any Ideas about how i got into this mess and how
to get out of it??

This is part of norton internet security. Has the slow down happened since
norton was installed? It is rather power hungry.

Have you checked for malware/ adware.

I have also run adaware, no hits??

Did you run in safe mode as well? If not, dl the latest definitions and and
with Tools/ Folder options/ View tab "Show hidden files and folders" then
OK.

Then rescan in normal and safe mode. You could also dl Spybot and do the
same (run in basic mode - some nice tools in advanced but safer until you
are conversant with it). It runs happily with Adaware and also blocks most
of the nasties. Very occasionally it picks up something Adaware missed.
