exe file...

[Bill]

Hello:

I have an .exe file (msrexe.exe) in my WINNT/System32
directory.

I am trying to determine if this is a valid/necessary
win2Kpro system file or something I can delete.

Any input is appreciated.

TIA,

Bill

And then you could always try the brute force approach if you have the
huevos. Delete it. Since it's in the System32 directory, if it is a critical
system file, you won't be able to, and if you do the system will restore it
from cache. Even with the huevos, you best rename it rather than delete it.

Wouldn't a better approach be to rename it?

To the original poster, if you go to Google
Groups and search for that file name you might
find your answer. Possibly a trojan.
