I've been getting slightly paranoid lately, waht with all these new worms comming out, and with an abudence of Illegal Operations on my machine, and adding in the fact that my computer is 5 years old and has been internet able all that time I was pretty sure I'd have a virus.

I went to download.com and gota free trial (seeing as I'm getting a new computer soon theres no point in going out and getting Norton just yet) it came up with these:

dark.exe
Ivcoms.exe
d2gall~1.exe
nathunker.exe
automove.exe
qebthq.exe

Now I'm not so bothered that I had all these, I'm just wondering what do they all do?? They could have been on my machine for yonks and I've never noticed anything too bad go wrong, I did try a search on the Norton site but it came up with nothing.

Anyone here seen these?
