[Full-disclosure] wintcpmod.exe Hear of it?

["Dan Bambach" <Dan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I noticed today that a program wintcpmod.exe, located in two places on my
hard drive, windows\system and windows\system32 was attempting to access
port 53. My firewall blocked it and sent an alert. I am on the road, so I
have not had time to fully investigate this yet, but a Google search
produced very little about this program. It sets a registry key for local
machine "run", and can be seen on the process screen. It does not appear in
the services list. I was able to kill it, but in my Google search, someone
has claimed that they were unable to kill the process. I am running WinXP
SPk2 fully patched, and Symantec AntiVirus, ZoneAlarmPro. Microsoft
AntiSpyware does not report anything.

 

Has anyone else seen this program?
