Thanks Bill. I too have noticed a tremendous slow-down in my computer. Not so much
with the blue screen disease but in surfing times between links. I also have recently
up graded the MSN msgr and seeing your comments, looked in msconfig, and sure as
hell--- there it was, "loadQm". Now it's unchecked for start-up but do you know if
this file can just be deleted? Would like to know if you find out

I recently found the loadqm.exe running on my computer, from what
I have found, disabling it with msconfig does not work to disable it.
I ran a file search, it found the exe in the c:\windows directory.
I had a friend decompile the one on my computer, from what i have been
told, it was a password cracker. After cracking the password it either sends
that information to a server somewhere, or changes the password using
a formula located within the source code. Anyone that knows how to interpret
code please contact me.

hey all loadqm.exe is a file that sends info to Microsoft, eats up recorces, and
bandwith on your network \ connection. You can delete the file and QLoadmgr.exe
and a various other files loadqm.exe refers to, and you msn messanger will contune
to run. Microsoft has no comments on this file even though it loads with MSN. Spying
on you? Perhaps.. just an FYI you can leave it if you want, but your performance
will suffer.. I have also noticed that your drives (when using a scsii or a ultra
DMA card) will be accessing nonstop.
Just an FYI

Loadqm.exe is sending out tons of Aarp (arp) requests on our network. This looks
like an attempt to discover our network's IP address structure. The broadcasts are
also slowing down our users' email. I consider this a virus from the evil empire.

What is "LoadWC.exe" in the "C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM" folder. When I right-click and for
the properties it tells me "version 6.0.2600.0" and the name "Load Web Check"
What the heck is "WebCheck?"
Thanks.

it takes over the NEt and trace it's target where it gives information to you will
find it goes to:

Could you share out the trace of the traffic that shows 213.120.62.97 as the ultimate
destination of the packets?
Or did you just tracert to whatever the destination was and freak out because one
of the packets went through this router?

Hello! :-)
Sorry for my bad English.
How can you delete these files? Simply choosing "delete" is not possible, it doesn't
allow you to do it!

HI,
I've downloaded Xteq X-Setup 6.2 final, and you can disable it from in there - once
downloaded, select Advanced Options, Startup/Shutdown/Startup/Windows 9x/me/Autorun
- Part 1/Autorun Programs - then highlight LoadXQM and select disable.

The previous poster has no clue what he/she is talking about. loadqm.exe is not used
to send files to Microsoft or spy on you. Here is a hot tip, Microsoft is way to
busy to care what you are doing. As far as Microsoft not giving a detailed explaination
as to what loadqm is, that is bull. You can find a very detailed explaination of
loadqm in the Microsoft knowledge base article Q309418. If you want to get to it
quickly, just go here http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb;en-us;Q309418
Hope this clears things up.

OK man. I have readen the note on Microsoft you have posted. I don't get it at all.
I don't have a MSNCoreFiles folder, neither a Msn6.ini file.
I am not saying it is an Evil Plot from MS to scan all our hard drives, but I'm sure
this program "loadqm.exe" is not an angel.
Any time I startup Windows it tries to connect me to "aycaramba.com.mx".
So, maybe it's not from MS or from the Military, but it connects you to an undesired
URL with God knows what intentions.
Anyway I disabled it from the startup, and will keep looking for a best answer to
the function of the program.
Anyone can do this with STARTUP MONITOR, (Freeware you can get here http://www.mlin.net/StartupMonitor.shtml
, very easy to use). Instead of deleting the program.

Here is a response from Zone Alarms knowledge database that clearly explains LoadQM.exe
and how to remove it.
"Microsoft QMgr is on your computer as a result of installing either MSN Messenger
or MSN Explorer (or both). Microsoft QMgr is used by Microsoft for what they term
"Service Quality Monitoring." A brief explanation of this functionality is a Microsoft
server monitors your MSN Messenger or MSN Explorer login status. You can learn more
about this feature by accessing the Help and Settings menu within MSN Explorer, click
on the Privacy section. If you are using MSN Messenger, go to the Help menu and select
"Privacy Policy."
Microsoft QMgr is currently designed to launch at bootup regardless if you have MSN
Messenger or MSN Explorer configured to do so. In addition, Microsoft QMgr runs as
a service so that means it is always on, even if MSN Messenger or MSN Explorer are
not being used. Microsoft QMgr will run as a service no matter what permissions are
applied through ZoneAlarm. If you desire to eliminate Microsoft QMgr running as a
service, refer to the removal section for information on how to accomplish this.
The removal method is:
Removing Microsoft QMgr
Microsoft QMgr is placed in the root directory of Windows when you install MSN Messenger
or MSN Explorer. If you are using Windows NT or 2000 or XP, you can terminate the
Microsoft QMgr process by using ctrl-alt-del, accessing the Task Manager process
tab and looking for LOADQM.EXE. Simply highlight the entry and select "end process."
Then, you will be able to delete LOADQM.EXE from the Windows root directory (go to
Start/Search/For Files and Folders if unsure where to find LOADQM.EXE). Also, you
should remove the loadQM instance at: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run.
If you are unfamiliar with editing the Registry, it is advised to consult technical
expertise to assist you. If you are using Windows 95, Windows 98 or Windows Me, you
will need a third party utility to terminate a running process. You can search freeware
software tool web sites such as WebAttack for such a utility.
Worked for me. Good luck.

Well, From The Little Contact I'v had with LOADQM.EXE I found out it was made in
VB (Visual Basics) and is kinda like a worm, U can delete it buy, holding alt, ctrl,
and hit delete, and then exit the LoadQM.EXE, Once the LoadQM.exe is out of ur alt,ctrl,delete
box, u may delete it :)
