GameUX or Game Explorer will be started when you started some games many time and GameUX System thinks you are running old games. GameUX uses rundll32.exe and it will makes your computer runs very slow because GameUX is attempting to connect to the internet. (If you're playing in Offline or Single Player mode or for a long time, This will maybe happens)

This will work for Windows 7 (Maybe Vista too) users only.
