Unknown Cab. File

Guest

A cabinet file recently appeared in my C: directory. It's identified as
"C:\36056b9b-9f0d-4ec2-804a-26710fdcadc0.cab". It contains an .xml file of
the same name. I'm reluctant to extract the file to read it. I don't know
what it is or where it came from. A Google search didn't show anything.

Can anyone tell me what it is?

Thanks,
Milt

Trash most likely. One can easily tell from the long file name/random
name.

Milt,

I found the reference in the registry. Not sure exactly what it is though.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Explorer Bars, expand
sub folders {C4EE31F3-4768-11D2-BE5C-00A0C9A83DA1} & FilesNamedMRU

Thanks Drew,

I guess I can rename or move the file and see if it causes any problems. I
just thought someone might know what it is before I mess things up.
