    I just had this come up in a virus scan today. I rescanned after rebooting and it wasn’t there, so :whew:. Glad that’s over with.

    What the heck is it and where the heck did it come from anyway?

    I’m not sure what it belongs to. It is definitely a cause of popups. It was persistent and difficult to make go away on the system I was cleaning. The system I was working on was riddled with nasties. The information on loadadv64 seemed very limited or I was way over tired and making poor searches.
