Win Me Genuine file?

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsme.general (More info?)

After a complete virus scan, I'm told that a Trojan Horse is infecting file:
winln.exe in C|W|winln.exe which could not be repaired so was put into
quarantine. My question: is this a genuine Win Me file? if so how can I
replace it once deleted
Tks in advance

Pat (Paul):
The particular filename you mention, winln.exe, was added by a trojan and if
put into quarantine, should be in safe hands, but can also be safely
deleted.
This is not a guarantee, but simply information gathered via "search".
You may use it at your own risk.

Harry.

Paul,

The Win Me operating system contains no file named winln.exe. You need
not replace this file as it is most likely the Trojan.
