Error message

[Lisa]

I'm getting an error message of:

data1.dat was not found. It appears in a small grey box
with dark blue at the top and listed at the top is:

wupdater

Please help if you know what this is. Thanks!

Hi Lisa,

'wupdater' could be spyware/adware or a virus. I found a reference to a
piece of adware called 'KeenValue' that uses these files. I would
recommend scanning for viruses and using a product to check for and remove
spyware/adware.
