Spoolsv.exe

I have recently noticed that my avg scanner scans for incoming email, but i do not have an email client running. 
Which means I am not accessing emails that should be scanned by my avg.
The problem is that I think it would be a virus or a spyware or something running on my system. I did a quick check on the running programs in my task manager and found this spoolsv.exe program. It took my attention as I know that spoolsv is a spooler for printers, BUT I DO NOT HAVE A PRINTER INSTALLED on this machine. I did some research about this in google and found out that there is a virus or a worm named as such.
Its already around 1:30 am and i'm tired from the halloween party at the office. Maybe i'll fix this tomorrow night. Anybody who can help me about this would be of such value.
