    Default msupdate5661??

    Anyone any idea of what this file is and what its for?
    My norton Anti-Virus just found this as a virus and after sh*tloadsa trouble trying to delete it and finding xtgold i managed to get rid of it through dos but now it says it cant find the file so im just wondering whther its a file needed by windows xp? I doubt its an important file as xps running fine but something else is looking for it?
    Any ideas?

    Cheers
    Sam

    If Norton found it as a virus - it's a virus.

    Run regedit, go to

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

    and delete the value that trys to start the deleted file.
