Default dao360.dll._p


What do I do with the listed file in a folder within my C drive folders?

it is a tiny file: 1000 bytes.

Necessary? delete?

Thanks
Robert

Well it seem suspicious to me, did you done a scan for malwares and Viruses
lately ?.
Because it is double extension dll._p, but some said it is folder left after
windows update, where it reside on your computer is it in the download folder
say: C:\Windows\SoftwreDistribute\ download or where is it reside?.
HTH.

"dao360.dll" is the name of a file that is a part of "MS Jet Database
Engine."

I do not know what dao360.dll_p is though. Depending on what folder it's
in, it may be a spare copy of the dao360.dll file installed by some
software that uses that engine (AOL maybe?). Just guessing though.

Hi Sharon,

Every reference that I have found refers to dao360.dll._p being in a random
name folder that was probably created by a Windows Update and not deleted
properly.

or
