I'd like to know about the file ptsnoop.exe - in start up

Is it a modem's file ? or a trojan ?

Thank You reply by anybody .

In almost all cases I've seen it's the legitimate item: a program that monitors the COM ports for the modem driver.

I suggest you upload the file here to be tested: http://virusscan.jotti.org/

If it scans clean, which I expect it will, there's nothing to worry about.

Cheers,
 
You will find like already mentioned most times than not it is legit and seems exclusive to 98's in particular. The filename certainly gives it a hint of suspicion though. :)

Good to see you again Tony.
