I turned on my PC this am (XP Pro SP2) and received this MSas alert - An
unknown IE Bar requires Approval -

Microsoft AntiSpyware has detected an Internet Explorer Bar trying to be
added. Explorer Bars are plugins for Internet Explorer that give the program
full control over Internet Explorer.

Name: Microsoft® Windows® Operating System

Description: Shell Doc Object and Control Library

Publisher: Microsoft Corporation

Path: c:\windows\system32\shdocvw.dll

Advise: While this is not a known spyware threat, you might want to analyze
this program before either allowing or blocking it.

Have tried looking to determine why I got this message and where this came
from so I can either allow or block it - I looked at the file on my PC and
the details listed are: DateMod 01/27/05, DateCreat 09/02/04, size on disk
1,486,848 bytes, ver 6.00.2900.2573 .

Have not been able to find any info as to why I got this, it just popped up
during boot time. Any help appreciated.

Thanks, Rock
 
Rock,

Most likely it's a bug. Have seen this occur before. To be on the safe
side you can scan the file at :
