Clean Windows XP Pro install on new hard drive, all hardware found and
configured by XP Pro during install no 3rd party drivers. All SP's and fixes
done. XP Firewall warns of a file attempting access called TINREU.EXE
located in system32 as a hidden system protected file. Other machines with
XP Pro don't have this file... Did a MS, yahoo and Google search, no
reference... anyone have any idea??

TIA
