running background process looks a lil shadey

[halokid]

Hi all,

So i hadnt checked my running processes from the task manager in a while, and i discover a fishy one its called "StkSrv2k.exe". Avg (anti-virus) came back negative
and so did ad-aware. My question is, should I find another search and eliminate program?  What about those process specific programs? What do you  guys use?
OS: Winxp sp2

Have you loaded Syntek Hardware Snapshot?

Some StkSrv2K.exe information

The process Syntek Hardware Snapshot Launch Application Services belongs to the software Syntek Hardware Snapshot Launch Application Services or Syntek DC-112X Service by Syntek America Inc.

Description: StkSrv2K.exe is located in the folder C:\Windows\System32. The file size on Windows XP is 24576 bytes.

The program has no visible window. StkSrv2K.exe is an unknown file in the Windows folder. File StkSrv2K.exe is not a Windows system file.

Therefore be cautious
Important: Some malware camouflage themselves as StkSrv2K.exe, particularly if they are located in c:\windows or c:\windows\system32 folder.

Hope this helps some  :-\

I prefere HijackThis for removal if necessary
