remarks This information was provided by an anonymous visitor via the processfeedbackform!
The following information was provided by Andy:
khooker.exe assigns a task to a letter on the keyboard. It is not necessary for a running OS. Even on some OS this little program causes a alarm message or a "crash".

Remove it in task manager and look for (regedit) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
There search for an entry like hooker.exe and delete it.
At least delete the program in /system32, too.

But I can"t admit one"s responsibility! Save your registry before this procedere. Good luck.

I found a link to your site from google:
http://www.reger24.de/prozesse/khooker.exe.php

Was searching "khooker" because I have a laptop with an SiS integrated video card.

When I deleted the SiS tray application from StartMenu\Startup I got this error everytime I logged off (Win2000).

khooker.exe - DLL Failed to start because windows is shutting down.

Found a better way than deleting the khooker.exe file.
Seems it's loaded by the SiS video driver.

Change these registry DWORDS to 0 and the video driver doesn't load them:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\sis\ReferCount\315
khooker DWORD 1 (orig - set to 0)
sistray 1 (orig - set to 0)

Khooker is not loaded by the video driver at startup!

* also delete registry Run entry for khooker.exe

Cheers,
Galen
