Note on File Locations:
Remember that although many files are always in default file locations, some
files can easily be moved to different locations or change names like many
spyware,
adware, or popup programs do. If
you suspect you have
spyware
or
adware, check to see if you see a
similar names stored elsewhere. It always helps to check your task list also to
see what is currently running on your computer. You can always view the task
list on your computer by pressing ctrl-alt-del to view your "task manager", and
then click the "processes" tab. This will show you all tasks running on your
computer.
Dll files will NOT show on your computer task list, as
dll files are
actually part of other processes. You may see similar program names running if
spyware
or
adware
is on your computer, for example, alxtb2.dll may be slightly misspelled to
keep you from finding it, or
spyware
and
adware
may be named very similar to a system file. Make sure always check the location
of tasks or processes if you are concerned. alxtb2.dll can also be used by
other programs or software, as there is no standard on software program names
what companies choose. Verify the spelling of alxtb2.dll and make sure the
entire name matches, and verify the file location which we always list for you
on this site.
