    AVG is forever throwing up alerts about those files changing. It's nearly always the result of updates from Microsoft being recently installed.

    A format and reinstallation of Windows certainly isn't what the doctor ordered. :D

    Totally agree, I always get a similar message concerning those files when I scan with AVG.
    It just tells you of a change and not an infection.
    Move along, nothing to see.
  • Thank you for your help, as a non techie, I tend to see every thing as a threat! lol
