Searching on other groups also there were a couple of other occurrences all 
recently too. I think it might be a version of Download.Ject seeing as how 
someone mentioned dragging the scrollbar placed that file on the local 
system. Is it under windows/system32?

Hey list,

Rebooted my XP-box today to do a chkdsk. When it came back up my firewall
went beserk, warning me about an application called "svcnxp32.exe" trying
to connect to 82.36.152.102

I don't know what it is - I just know it has no business doing that. A
Google search for svcnxp32.exe came up blank.

After removing svcnxp32.exe from my registry and deleting the file from
C:\Windows\System32 I scanned my system with Kaspersky. No infection.
Scanned with AdAware, same result.

A RIPE WhoIs lookup on IP 82.36.152.102 shows it as belonging to
Blueyonder, apparently an Internet provider located in England. I've
emailed their abuse-department (not holding my breath though), but would
like to hear from you all if you've run into this or something similar?

Using Tiny Personal Firewall, my log showed this:

Count:1
Module:Firewall
Action:Prevented
Application:svcnxp32.exe
Access:Outbound TCP access
Object:1027 -> 82.36.152.102
