    Hi- I have a File on my pc I really do not understand. I am 99% sure it is not spyware/malware related. I use Comodo Dragon browser exclusively (Chromium) and this file may be related to that. Not sure.

    C:\Documents&Settings\My Name\Local Settings\Temp
    -CRX_75DAF8CB7768
    -crl-set
    -manifest.json

    The only thing I can find out is that 'manifest.json' is related to java script.

    Is this Temp file something I need to be concerned with?... I read on the Google Product Forums where someone posted that it allowed others (Hackers?) to access and read my Gmail(?)

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Hi

    You are correct its a Google Chrome file (or as you have a browser with the Chromium backend). Think if you'd read the comment/s below that "hacker" one that you'll have see that user was a troll.


    I have the same files as you in the same location.

    Thanks, David. Yeah, people such as that should keep their ignorant mouths closed, and their ignorant fingers away from the keyboard.
