I was looking in my msconfig util today and found the in the startup area
c:\program files\Network Associ... a file called DEERHNT.IFA. It is a
microsoft file and it is loaded at startup.

Does anyone know if this file is needed and what does it do??

Network Associates makes McAfee products. Do you have any McAfee programs
installed? However, a Google for DEERHNT.IFA produced no hits. I don't have
any McAfee programs on any of my Windows machines so I can't check for you.

Send a copy of DEERHNT.IFA to Virus Total to see what comes back.

Whay are you saying it is a Microsoft file? If it is in Network Associates
path, it is more likely something dealing with McAfee or such.
 
Network Associate is also for PGP do you have this encrytion program
on your computer?
