WGAPluginInstall.exe file?

J

I recently downloaded and installed a Windows update that led to
verification of my OS and which was followed by some other stuff that
I don't understand at all - WGA and etc.

Anyway, now I find in my download folder these files:
SP16025.exe, which I believe is a modem driver (Conexant V.90/56K...).
I don't believe that MS sent me that, and I'm not sure where it came
from. It scans clean with AVG. I am wondering if I need to install
this or not. I use cable for internet, but I might want to use a
telephone for something or other. What are your thoughts - should I
install it or delete it?

Also in the download folder are two copies of WGAPluginInstall.exe. I
assume this came with the OS verification stuff and didn't get
installed. Do you recomend installation or deletion.

Thank you for your advice.

WGApluginstall.exe is from MS, but its also
for firefox (Not too sure if its for IE or not).

It lets u "authenicate" and use Firefox for updating
XP. And lets u use Firefox to get updates that require validation..Instead
of using IE.
