| I recently installed zone alarm firewall and almost immediately
| received an alert that iwkka.exe was trying to access the internet. I
| Denied access. Then it was followed by iwkkl.exe and iwkkm.exe. I
| did a view source on the alarm and found a folder in the Program
Files>> Common Files>iwkk. I tried looking up the iwkk on the internet
| but don't find anything. I am using Norton's AV / Windows XP . Does
| anyone know what iwkk is?

The names alone are indicative of malware.

Please submit iwkka.exe, iwkkl.exe and/or iwkkm.exe to Virus Total --
http://www.virustotal.com/flash/index_en.html
The submission will then be tested against 18 different AV vendor's scanners.

Another way to submit is to send the suspect file to the following email address
scan<at>virustotal.com
{ replace <at> with @ } with only the word SCAN as the subject.

Please post back the EXACT results.
