Just did a rootkit scan, 1 file is supsicious , malware scan says its clean.

What is this file and should i delete the file?

I have no issues what so ever with the system.

Type: File
Object: ~DFFDA43B66B786F72D.TMP
Location: C:\Users\Mkey\AppData\Local\Temp\
Details: No admin in ACL

Keep up the good work SpyBot!!!

Thanks!!
 
Hello duncanalias,

That's a AppData\Local temp file, no problem. :)

Best regards.

Thank u for your response.

So i guess that a temp file never can be a rootkit? or malware, or virus, or....
Harmless always?


Questions provide knowledge me like :D

Temp files can be infected, do you clean out your Internet temp files? :)

Best regards

Yes, like once a month.

After the rootkit scan i started to have some errors and warnings in the firefox console that dit pop up. (after cleaning temp files)

No problems on sites do... everything seems to work fine.

i saved the errors and warnings in case you want to know.

Sounds good.

I take it your version of Spybot is without the AV so just one AV is installed as it should be. :)
