If its not hurting anything why do you want to delete it .as it is not the bad malware bridge.dll file that everyone else is trying to get rid of .
It is a microsoft file .

Have Hijack This fix the following by placing a check in the appropriate boxes and selecting fix checked. Make sure all browser and all Windows Explorer windows are closed before fixing.

Reboot and post fresh log

Also a trip to windows updates is needed for critical updates and SP1's
WINDOWS UPDATES

thanks very much for your help. I am checking for updates now - and have fixed the Hijackthis items. Regarding the bridge.sys file - it just seems strange that it won't go away, do you think that it will not cause any problems?

thanks
Kath
