There are a lot of viruses floating around, aswell as spyware trojans and malware. These files should be backed up in case of an emergancy IEXPLORE.EXE : C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer REGEDIT.EXE : C:\Windows\system32\regedit.exe MSHTA.EXE : C:\Windows\system32\mshta.exe RUNDLL32.EXE : C:\Windows\system32\rundll32.exe SHIMGVW.DLL : C:\Windows\system32\shimgvw.dll SHELL32.DLL : C:\Windows\system32\shell32.dll KERNEL32.DLL : C:\Windows\system32\kernel32.dll WSOCK32.DLL : C:\Windows\system32\wsock32.dll USER32.DLL : C:\Windows\system32\user32.dll NTOSKRNL.EXE : C:\Windows\system32\ntoskrnl.exe Hope this stop you from re-formatting in future
I have a clean computer. I'll get them uploaded on rapidshare. edit: Nevermind I just realized I can't there are too many different versions of the files.
I'm sure most people have XP Service Pack 2 so just upload the most recent ones and warn people to make sure they have the latest updates... or else...
Yes iexplorer is a main program that must be ran in order for ur pc work. So by backing up the clean files repalcing them will be mean virus free cpu
These files will vary with each version of your operating system and your specific hardware configuration. The safest bet is just to do full system backups on a seperate hard drive, using a RAID setup if at all possible.
