Default EmieUserList

I am running Windows 8.1 fully updated, on a Toshiba Satellite Dual core
processor.

I found this sub directory in several of the User AppDate folders what
is it EmieUserList

There seems to be an accompanying file EmieBrowserModeList


What are these folders?

An indication of a virus?

C:\Users\Matthew\AppData\LocalLow\EmieBrowserModeL ist\Piuhhayxoju\Upwcrjqugf\byptjghqxod.exe

If the file is being used to block the creation of a folder with randomly
named executables in it, maybe that's a good thing ?

It could be that your AV already did something about it.

And in another thread, someone else has another suggestion for
what the name implies. Yet, they're doing AV cleanup on the
thing.

Microsoft's Enterprise Mode Site List Manager Tool for IE11

So maybe the name is picked as a disguise, but if you find randomly
named executables in there, that would be a bad thing.

EmieBrowserModeList is defined as a malicious trojan virus...

It is malware. Malwarebytes removed it from one of my systems the
other day.

OP
I have been working on this since I posted it I think I have the answer

First it is "Emie" not "ernie"

EmieBrowserModeList
EmieSiteList
EmieUserList

This is what Microsoft says about the folders and the files.

http://www.microsoft.com/en-in/downl....aspx?id=42501

From the above and other sites the EMIE folders are part of the
Enterprise mode of Internet Explorer, and unless you are removing the
Enterprise mode should be left a lone.

EmieBrowserModeList

As far as I can see, no one said it was "ernie"?

Agreed, but I can see how it might look like "ERNIE" before one's first cup of
coffee.

Agreed too ;-))

Very strange, those folders are part of the IE11 enterprise mode, seems
like malwarebytes might have been in error.

See: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn640687.aspx


Where does it state that?

I see nothing at all there concerning "EmieUserList".
It is MALWARE and nothing to do with Micro$oft.

Yes, EmieUserList is dropped by a Trojan or other malware. Remove all
suspicious
files that are dropped by this virus now.
