[QUOTE="MalwareBlockerYT, post: 581321"] Thanks & yeah VoodooShield would block any files in appdata. Here is how a dll file leftover is classed as an infection: DLL stands for “Dynamic-Link Library”, and is Microsoft’s implementation of the shared library concept in the Microsoft Windows and OS/2 operating systems. They are essentially the same as EXEs, but are named differently for clarity in the linking process. DLL files cannot, however, be directly executed, hence the existence of tools like [I]rundll.exe[/I] and [I]rundll32.exe[/I]. DLL files are nothing more than a means for developers to use shared code and data, allowing to upgrade functionalities without the need to re-link or re-compile applications. In other words, DLL files contain code and data that is used by several different applications. A single DLL file can be used by different applications, if they should require it, eliminating the need for multiple copies of the same information. [/QUOTE]
