RUpdate.log


Question

Can anyone tell me what RUpdate.log is? I have found it in a few different folders on my computer. Most of the time it shows up in some of my temp folders. I have no idea what program may be creating this file and it's getting kinda scary.

Here is the contents of the last one I found:

1 23:06 7/07/2002 000008C8 ECAPI: In InitInstance, reference count = 1

WTF is this file?!

its created by mcafee virusscan 6 when you scan a file for viruses.

edit: test it out. right click a file on your desktop and choose "scan for viruses"... rupdate.log will appear on your desktop

edit#2: btw..you ever seen Groundhog Day? ;) :p

I figured out what that file was. I don't see why McAfee VirusScan needs to make that friggin file every time I run a scan though. It's starting to annoy me.

I have seen the movie, but it is nothing like the real thing...from what I have heard...I have never been to the actual Groundhog Day and never plan on going. I don't think it's worth standing outside w/ 100,000 other people and freezing your tail off to see a friggin animal. LOL

I'm surprised someone on here actually knew WTF Punsxy is! :)
