Is crypt32chain bad?

I'm confused. I recently upgraded to version 1.4 and I get the following listing in the system startup portion of Spybot. Each of these lines is new since upgrading to version 1.4:

Located: System.ini, cryptnet
command: cryptnet.dll
file: cryptnet.dll

Located: System.ini, cscdll
command: cscdll.dll
file: cscdll.dll

Located: System.ini, ScCertProp
command: wlnotify.dll
file: wlnotify.dll

Located: System.ini, Schedule
command: wlnotify.dll
file: wlnotify.dll

Located: System.ini, sclgntfy
command: sclgntfy.dll
file: sclgntfy.dll

Located: System.ini, SensLogn
command: WlNotify.dll
file: WlNotify.dll

Located: System.ini, termsrv
command: wlnotify.dll
file: wlnotify.dll

Located: System.ini, wlballoon
command: wlnotify.dll
file: wlnotify.dll

Located: System.ini, crypt32chain
command: crypt32.dll
file: crypt32.dll


Here is my question: Various places on the web say that these files are harmful:

crypt32chain
winnotify.dll
senslogn

For examples, see www.liutilities.com and www.processlibrary.com

However, this Spybot forum says they are not harmful. For example, see this forum entry: http://forums.spybot.info/showthread...t=crypt32chain

Can you explain the descrepancy? I am very concerned. I just received a warning message from my browser that a security certificate for my bank does not match correctly. The warning is that "someone may be trying to eavesdrop."

I have updated Spybot and run scans both in safe mode and regular mode. Spybot doesn't seem to be able to remove an entry in MSDirect Input, but it's just a registry long to the last program opened.

Thanks!!

Hi MarcG

All those in your SpyBot report are there by default when you install windows, as i mentioned in that other thread.

Notice that http://www.processlibrary.com/directory/files/crypt32chain/
mentions crypt32chain.dll not crypt32.dll
http://www.processlibrary.com/directory?files=crypt32.dll

A better place to get more information on those paticular startups is from
http://www.castlecops.com/O20.html
I just received a warning message from my browser that a security certificate for my bank does not match correctly. The warning is that "someone may be trying to eavesdrop."
Click to expand...
Using what browser and at what website ?
Is your Browser updated ?
 
I think you should ask why the security certificate warning at opera's forums and at that website to.

Let us know what you find out please
