DW15.exe spyware?

I was able to get rid of one problem (different name) w/spybot.

Here's the list:

REM Notes:
REM DOSSTART.BAT is run whenenver you choose "Restart the computer
REM in MS-DOS mode" from the Shutdown menu in Windows. It allows
REM you to load programs that you might not want loaded in Windows,
REM (because they have functional equivalents) but that you do
REM want loaded under MS-DOS. The two primary candidates for
REM this are MSCDEX and a real mode driver for the mouse you ship
REM with your system. Commands that you want present in both Windows
REM and MS-DOS should be placed in the Autoexec.bat in the
REM \Image directory of your reference server. Please note that for
REM MSCDEX you will need to load the corresponding real-mode CD
REM driver in Config.sys. This driver won't be used by Windows 98
REM but will be available prior to and after Windows 98 exits.
REM
REM This file is also helpful if you want to F8 boot into MS-DOS 7.0
REM before Windows loads and access the CD-ROM. All you have to do
REM is press F8 and then run DOSSTART to load MSCDEX and your real
REM mode mouse driver (no need to remember the command line parameters
REM for these two files.
REM
REM - You MUST explicitly specify the CD ROM Drive Letter for MSCDEX.
REM - The string following the /D: statement must explicitly match
REM the string in CONFIG.SYS following your CD-ROM device driver.

It says nothing suspicious, but I don't know what a couple of those are.

Could they be a problem that Adawre isn't updated to see?

Your startup list is all legitimate. You have no spyware processes. DW15 is an internet explorer (& microsoft apps in general) Error Control program, the one that pops up and asks if it should send an error report to microsoft. When internet explorer encounters a problem, sometimes it will pop up and say "internet explorer has encountered a problem and needs to be closed. Send error report/Don't send". there is a little check box, 'restart internet explorer'. If you have this selected, DW15 will run. DW15 remembers the address you were at before IE crashed (only if possible), and/or restarts internet explorer. Remember, this is microsoft. Your system was acting jerky and messing up because Internet Explorer most likely wasn't closed (the process.exe would show up in a process viewer most likely). Just restart your computer.

P.S.
If DW15 cannot contact microsoft servers, it hangs until the connection times out, using a lot of system resources in the meantime (sometimes windows will read the program as not responding). Yay microsoft!
