What is efes.exe
A few days ago a file named efes. exe showed up on my comp, in the All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup folder under Documents & Settings, which I have no idea of its purpose or danger. It also seemed to show up on my bro's comp the same day.

You might try Ad Aware :

It can remove a lot of the nasty publicity you might get on the web.
Running an anti-virus would certainly not be bad!
It might not be a Trojan, because as BBA said there are a little more subtle but it might well be ads. Those are usually programmed with haste.

I found out that it's a polymorphic virus named W32.BugBear.B@mm !!
It is fairly serious because it allows the virus author to control your PC, start or stop process, etc. etc. and it's also a keylogger which sends off all you typings to one of many predefined email addressed every 2 hours. It is treatable since the June 5th, 2003 Norton Anti-Virus update.
