...my wife just called, and said dhe talked with her ???"LAN support" person, and it's a hoax, something about "it's" supposed to be there as part of a ???debugging' part of microsoft/java????....
...don't ask me I just deleted it cause sh'e supposed to be the expert, now I think she said we have to put it back in ?????
...check with your "own" experts......
....SORRY FOR THE NOT LOOKING HEADS UP"

For anyone who did delete it here is a copy of it attached in zip format. Just extract it and drop it into your C:\WINDOWS\System32 folder. This file is from WinXP pro although it's probably the same in other versions of windows.
