c:\windows\system32\wlnotify.dll

Fri Nov 22, 2002 10:46 pm

Hey, I have XP.

Recently, when I was shutting down/booting up/logging on/off, there has been this sentence after logging in:

"Executing c:\windows\system32\wlnotify.dll"

Does anyone know what file is this??

Is it a virus or M$'s spyware files?? Norton AV 2002 said that it did not contain any viruses. But then again, Norton is not 100% foolproof

Never heard of it, and it doesn't exist on a VLK edition.
