unknown file

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately the file is gone. Spybot removed it (or adaware). I am interested becauseI could not find an info about it anywhere.

Thanks,
bill

Here is the log. All the entries look familiar to me.
ATI, ZA, mouse, etc.

Thanks,
bill

What causes the repetitive IE files?
