Let's see; Is this where I get bugs for free?

[Guest]

Sent this security (see Below) issue question last night and got a response from someone
called W. Gower. If there is no answer to the question, then I and anyone reading
this posting can continue to be worried about unsolicited programs being loaded into
their computers while visiting the newsgroup.
I'd be happy to hear the MUN4D.EXE; which I deleted from \Temp, for which I see a
57K .pf in my \Windows\Prefetch: MUN4D.EXE-13D61D53.pf also created at 21.41
is something that does not matter. Or even better, what it is.

Wonder what this is? Is there a webmaster out there I can send it to
Should I run it
Temp file
Probably some harmless, innocuous thing

Why would you want to send it to a webmaster

Don't have a clue what you are talking about and I would guess no one else
does either. Set up a newsreader to access the newsgroups, as this is not a
Microsoft monitored support desk, but a peer support newsgroup.
See the link in my signature to setup OE newsreader for a better newsgroups
experience.

Google doesn't seem to have heard of "Msunin.exe" or "MUN4D.EXE". They could
be anything.

What happens if you scan them with your uptodate anti virus program?

Try running the Control Panel -> performance and maint. -> "Free up space on
your hard disc" wizard. If they are gone after that they probably aren't
important.

Never run anything if you don't know what it does.

It appears to be related to an alleged XP Patch, and looks a tad
suspicious:

M$ bugs aren't free! I like many others out there paid
$300 for all those damned bugs.
