In C/Windows/Prefetch are many application files, encrypted, with file
extension .pf
Windows is unable to open these files, with names like
NDETECT.EXE-16E64095.pf and DLAYUPDT.EXE-04F1628D.pf and
UNWISE.EXE-18CAEA7A.pf
At times Norton Monitor alerts that one of these files,
IEXPLORE.EXE-27122324.pf is trying to access the internet, is of medium risk,
and suggests it be blocked. Blocking it (repeatedly) causes the desired
Internet Explorer page to not open.
Are these Prefetch files a legitmate part of Windows XP?
