Strange behaviour and files
« on: April 29, 2014, 06:39:01 PM »
Spybot challenged me this morning to see if "a7a7dd24-d82c-4887-8ce6-6d6e8cf19942.exe" was OK. It reesides in a folder under Setup called EMUPDATE.. along with a number of un-deleteable random numberd EXE files

Should I be worried about this or is this just AVASTs housekeeping?

Kinda makes me nervous...

Don't worry, it is part of the avast emupdate.
You may want to swap Spybot for Malwarebytes.
