Hey guys.
Just a headsup--I noticed my display driver crashing quite a bit today and no clue what was going on. My pc is brand new too so I was going insane.
I finally saw a process running called iehighutil.exe (with an IE icon) running and installed to C:\Temporary. Apparently this is a program that mines bitcoins (whatever the hell that is) thanks to a recent java exploit.
There's barely any info out on the web about it atm, so I figured I'd throw a headsup. If you're having any problems like I described, I'd most certainly check for that.
It is NOT detected by any spyware/anti-virus either at the moment.
Wasn't sure where to post this--so please move if necessary <3
