Hello Stephen Information on mmx.exe can be found here : http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=120 If you decide you want to remove this I suggest you look in add/remove in control panel. If its not there you could try running regedit and do a search for each occurrence of mmx.exe in your registry and then delete each occurrence. If you want to do this I suggest you backup the registry first.
