AUTORUNS showed me that oreans32 is running on my system. When it searches online for information about it, it finds (at website bleepingcomputer.com ):
Legitimate file protection driver from Oreans Technology, that if disabled, will stop the correct operation of legitimate software. Unfortunately, this driver can also be installed by malware that is packed by it, so it should be judged on case by case basis. Can anyone advise whether this is true and, if so, how can I tell whether this is legitimate? {(perhaps being used in conjunction with: AVG Anti=Spyware (free), AVF anti-viris (free) and Spy Sweeper and ZoneAlarm (free)}.
