UNSOLVED
weird folder in C:
This weird folder showed up under my C: drive showed up recently and I was wondering if it's important and if I can delete it (or move it to a different location). It's titled "2e9acfb7b3b2ef7985f1bb8b2563e1" and is directly under C: w/ the Program Files, DELL, Docs and Settings, and WINDOWS folder. Inside is a folder called "update", and inside that, an app file called "update" and a file "updspapi.dll". Viewing properties of the dll file it says "Windows servicing api". The reason I ask about this is mostly just a personal preference of mine, I don't like opening the C: drive and seeing some dumb extra folder named "2e9acfb7b3b2ef7985f1bb8b2563e1". Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Was probably left behind by a windows service pack install or update, delete it (send to recycle bin) and see if any problems arise in the nest coulple weeks (doubt it), you can always restore it from the recycle bin.
