Can anyone help me with this, my windows is eating memory on idle. I found some suspicious soundmodule.exe located in appdata/microsoft that is eating 2.5gb ram?
Can this be some maleware? And is this process tree looking suspicious?

I did manually removed the soundmodule från appdata and from the register entry. So Sophos did not find anything more then "Mal/Generic-S "

I will run a new scan now after restart.

RAM is down to 14% now after a restart. Im guessing that 4-5GB RAM on idle is OK?
