WHAT IS BASFIPM.EXE AND HOW CAN I GET RID OF IT.

THIS EXECUTIBLE EATS UP CPU USAGE INSTANTLY AND SLOWS THE PC DOWN CAUSING THE MOUSE TO JUMP ALL OVER THE PLACE. PROGRAMS ARE OPENING UP VERY SLOW.

IS THIS A TROJAN ?
IF SO, WHAT'S THE BEST WAY OF COMPLETELY ERASING IT.

I ran it through the major A/V companies. what I found was nothing that linked it to any virus/worm/trojan.

I did see it pop up on some peoples postings of HiJack This log.

nobdy has recommended it be removed from any of those forums.

if your not sure stop the proccess and see what screams.
if your using XP just go to start>run>type in msconfig and hit enter.
select the startup tab and select disable all...reboot and try adding them back one at a time to see if one of them is the culprit.

Broadcom ASF IP monitoring service v6.0.3

IP monitoring service for Broadcom ethernet cards

You can find it in Services
LRI41 is right.  We've had the same problem on a couple of laptops here at work.  Every time it has been a driver conflict, that can be fixed by going to Broadcom's site and downloading and installing the new drivers for the card. (BCM57xx Drivers).
BASFIPM.exe is not spyware, adware, or a trojan, and that is why spyware detectors don't remove it.  LRI41 deserves the points.
