Guest Sirtokalott Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Hi, could anyone please tell me if a file in my system32 folder called "asr_ldm" is dodgy. The company name associated with it is "Microsoft Corp." whilst I've noticed Microsoft files normally show the name "Microsoft Corporation". Quote
Guest Dobromir Todorov Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 It's probably genuine: http://www.programchecker.com/file/2163.aspx Mine also says Microsoft Corp. At the same time, if you really want to make sure that it's not genuine, and not replaced by a file with the same name and properties that actually does something dodgy, I'd suggest that you: - Reboot into a trusted operating system (potentially some Linux live CD) - Calculate the MD5 checksum of the file - Compare it with the MD5 checksum has found in the link above -- --- HTH, Dobromir Learn more about Security and Identity Management: Visit http://www.iamechanics.com "Sirtokalott" <Sirtokalott@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:CCCDF39C-DA0A-4DDA-BBAF-BDF8A4443E55@microsoft.com...<span style="color:blue"> > Hi, could anyone please tell me if a file in my system32 folder called > "asr_ldm" is dodgy.
