What are wdeh.exe & rÅndll32.exe?

I have these two processes running in task manager and don't recall having seen them there before. I found wdeh.exe with a recent creation date but don't know if it is safe to delete it. I know that rÅndll32.exe should not be there it is linked with internet explorer, and I THINK that i found it disguising itself as rundll32.exe (I have two rundll32.exe's in the directory, one with a recent creation date) I ran a search on the computer and found no files named rÅndll32.exe. I also looked online at symantec.com and found nothing and all a yahoo search brought up was pages in different languages that I couldn't translate. I believe it is a virus or or pop-up adware, Please any help would be greatly appreciated!

Well have you tried a virus scan or adware scan?

Free online virus scan:

Go to download.com or majorgeeks.com for ad-aware and spybot for adware scanners

There is a prog named Faber Toys I found at majorgeeks.com that lists all services running then provides details on the modules they use.

Run the prog, find the service that is running then it will list what files it is running so you can get an idea of what it is doing.
