.fileIEljrq

I have a very strange process running on RH6.2. It appears from time to time, and takes a little bit (1%) of memory and cpu time.

The process was started by .fileIEljrq.

There is a binary file with the same file name in /tmp

Any ideas what this is? Should I be worried? It looks "virus-ish".

Thanks for the help,

Ted

I did a search for that on every search engine I could think of and came up with nothing. I once had a process that looked really odd running on my PC at work. It was a process called "wowexec". I searched http://www.yahoo.com and I found out it had something to do with emulating 16 bit processing to run older missions critical sofware (http://www.winntmag.com/Articles/In...?ArticleID=3022).
