All comments about aolsoftware.exe:
Marcel diese datei wird benötigt wenn aol spyware protection installiert ist ansonsten ist es ein trojaner
Seems to be the fire responsible for updating AIM Triton. Triton won't run without it. It's annoying though.
M. Hüttner gehört zu xdrive.com
Olli Datei gehört allem Anschein nach zum AIM Programm von AOL, solange AIM läuft startet sich dieser Prozess von alleine immer wieder neu
TIno Der MediaMax (ehemals Streamload)-Client bringt die Datei ebenfalls mit. Wenn Sie unter "x:\programme\gemeinsame dateien\aol\" liegt, sollte sie ungefährlich sein.
