File purpose and description:
IESMN.EXE is a program that was most likely installed by you. The correct hard drive location is shown below for this exe file, always verify the location to make sure it is not spyware or virus related. This program has been reported by many and is known as the Trojan Downloader.Zlob.Media Codec. Be carefull when downloading codec's as many of these can be virus or trojan related. This can download other files also, so be aware if you have this as you may have more trojans hidden also. This program is considered virus related and action should be taken to clean it up. (See the details below for the actual location of this file.)
Actual file or task name:
iesmn.exe

This is an executable file.
File or folder location:

General information:
Be aware that many tasks will be similiar names to existing tasks or processes.
You can always view the running tasks on your computer by pressing ctrl-alt-del to view the windows
"task manager", and then view the "processes" tab. This will show you all tasks running or currently active
on your PC. Although this shows you all running tasks, it does not show dll file thats are loaded, as they
get loaded as part of other processes. Many spyware writers attempt to hide their files
on your computer, for example, iesmn.exe may be intentionally misspelled to look like a similiar task, or spyware may be named very
similiar to a Windows system task. The reason they do this is so you cannot easily recognize the name in your tasklist
as I have mentioned above. Make sure always check the location of the file if you are concerned.
You can always find the location of iesmn.exe on your computer by using your Windows search options, but
I will also try to list the file location of every file described on this website, so you can verify the correct location. You can view the entire tasklist directory with the link below.
