Hi guys,

I have found an executable on C:/ which I do not recognise (not unusual) but
a quick google seems to produce rather doubtful results - some forums say it
is a Trojan but don't seem very sure about it.

I would delete it but I seem to remember deleting something quite harmless
some years ago, after being advised to do - and it turned out to be wrong.

Neither Adware or AVG seem to notice it.

Does anyone know for sure?

Thanks!

You don't have to delete it - rename it to something else or move it to
somewhere else (or both) and see what happens. You can undo these changes
from DOS, in worst case. If you can't rename it then it's suspicious.
