Downloaded Program Files

[Guest Peter]

I had a look at the DPF folder through 'View Objects? and found 4 entries

damaged. Twoi refer to Symantec which I do not use but may have done an

online scan in the past; the others were fro Microsoft:

Security/controls/sass and the other to do with the the update.

 

Although I repaired them I wonder why they got damaged. I am pretty certain

I have no viruses at the present.

 

Then, can I delete the Symanted ones? Directly from the folder, or is it

better through HijackThis?

 

Thank you

Re: Downloaded Program Files

 

You can delete them directly, that's what HijackThis would do. If you need them again a

website will just download them again.
