i was just browsing the forum here when all of a sudden my printer spooled up and printed a page supposedly of it's own accord.

i only have one forum window and wmp open at the moment and the printer has printed a page which is completely blank, except for

"page 1 of 1" in the top right hand corner
"file://C:\DOCUME~1\AL09c6~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\IRIOSPL.htm" and today's date in the bottom right hand corner

i'm a little confused

anyone got any idea how this happened?

i have windows xp and an epson c62, if that's any help

edit: there isn't a file in the path specified. just thought i'd add that

Some crazy k lite hacker probably got you, dude!

Go talk to Balamm and get like 20 firewalls, then you might just be safe...

:unsure:

what does a search for this > IRIOSPL.htm point to? if you open it again, go to view source and copy the headers or html. maybe some clue there.

i can't find it through a windows search
including hidden and system files

i really hope it's not a hacker or something

i've never had any problems with security (that i know of :P )

Do you have Anti-Trojan 5.5 or similar installed? It should catch anything and doesn't usually cause any slowdowns.

i have trojan remover 6, but it takes forever to scan a whole drive

i'll try the program you suggest, thanks
