    Malicious Add-on?

    Hello;

    I am in the progress preparing my pc for installing IE7.
    ---
    In Add-ons that have been used by Internet Explorer (IE6):
    Name: Accu Class
    Status: Enabled
    Type: ActiveX control
    File: ACCU~15.DLL
    ---
    I conducted a thorough check with respect to viruses, malware and other
    pests.
    Scanned in normal and/or safe mode (where applicable) with CA Anti-Virus,
    Ad-Aware, Spybot S&D, SuperAntiSpyware, Windows Defender, Ewido
    Anti-Spyware, A squared Malware Scanner, David Lipman's MULTI_AV,
    RootkitRevealer and HijackThis.

    According to the scan results my system appears to be clean.
    --
    In RegSeeker v1.52 I found some additional information:

    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
    CLSID\{5DA14B0D-28BF-11D5-BA4C-00C04F3238A9}\InprocServer32
    ab(default) D:'ACCUC~15.DLL
    and
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
    CLSID\{5DA14B0D-28BF-11D5-BA4C-00C04F3238A9}\ToolboxBitmap32
    ab (default) D:'ACCUC~15.DLL, 101
    ---
    What is this add-on?
    Google does not seem to have any pertinent info.
    If this add-on is undesirable/malicious, where can I locate this file and/or
    how can I remove this item for good?

    I just can't find any further information as to whether or not this ActiveX
    Control is 'friendly' and how it can be removed safely from the Manage
    Add-ons panel.

    do not mention anything about Add-on's (i.e. ToolBoxBitmap32 or
    InprocServer32).

    Hope you can throw some light on this.

    TIA........................Kayman.

    I'd love to send you the file ACCU~15.DLL but am unable to locate it.
    I checked in C:\WINDOWS\system and in ...system32 - no luck

    Kind regards...................Kayman.

    Another one seduced by the mistress of knowledge ie arrogance.
    Forgetting that one day long ago -they knew little & asked questions of
    their own.
    Sorcerer & apprentice also springs to mind.

    Thanks Han.

    You suggested:

    "accu~15.dll probabbly isn't the real name. search for accu*.dll ".

    Everything is A1 OK! I was able to find and delete this and a few other
    'useless' add-ons.

    IE7 is running like a charm

    Cheers.....................Kayman.

    Idiot! = (synonymous) *Dustbin*.

    Most definitely substitutable
