Hi Gman,
Is there a way to receive all these emails on one big email once a day?
I belong to another group and that's the way I receive theirs.
If it is someone only you can setup, please do so for me.
Many thanks,
Gaynel

Patti,
To properly figure out what this is, we're going to need a bit more
info. Files found within an operating system can often be determined as
safe or malicious depending on where they are located. For example, a
system file that normally resides within the C:\Windows\System32 folder is,
of course, expected to be there. But if you find a file using the same name
in a different folder (say, C:\Windows), it may have been put there by some
malware and is using the system file name as a disguise. So, can you tell
us where this "axdist.exe" file was found on your hard drive?
Also, include any and all other info provided by the warning you were
given as well as the name of the program that issued the warning. And don't
forget to remind us what operating system you're running. We may find that
the file is normal on one OS, but should never be found on any others.
:O)
Peace,
Gman
