Most reports by users and anti-virus programs identify the hgkjghg0.dll file as malware. McAfee identifies this file as PWS-Bankier.dll. It is a process that is also known as IEHelper Module. This process does not have a visible window. A DLL [dynamic link library] file is a program that has functions that can be used by other applications. It can inject itself into other running processes to control or alter their behavior. A DLL file can be reused or organized into a module to save disk space and memory. This DLL file is a BHO [browser helper object] that automatically runs when you start the Internet browser. Personal firewalls often do not block BHO activities because the firewall detects the BHO as the browser itself. This is one reason why malware such as spyware and adware often use BHOs. Malware is a program that is created to access private systems without permission from the owner, to steal information or to interrupt the normal activities of the target computer system.
