Hi everyone, I'd like to pose a question to the group regarding a message I've been receiving today. It appears that my automatic updates downloaded and installed SP1 for Microsoft.net Framework 1.1 and ever since every time I turn on my computer I get a pop-up message on my system tray telling me the a startup program has been blocked. This program is UpdateUtil Application. When I follow this into Windows Defender, it appears that this program is from Microsoft (not Microsoft Corporation, thought) and runs with the File Name: netfxupdate.exe. This application is not digitally signed, but it says the publisher is Microsoft. Other relevant information is: Startup Value: "C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\netfxupdate.exe" 1 v1.1.4322 GAC + NI NID File Path: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\netfxupdate.exe |
