What is GLB.tmp

Hello , I have noticed few of these items status' are either "Permitted "
-or- "Blocked" in the Personal Firewall Control Program settings of Norton :
Internet Security 2005 . I selected to "Block" all these items , because
niether the results from my searches and knowledge of them from H/P are
helpful . Them items are : GLB13C.tmp
- GLBDE.tmp
- GLB24.tmp
- GLB1A.tmp
- GLB25.tmp
- GLB1B.tmp
- GLBA3.tmp
- GLB99.tmp . What are the items ? I will continue searching for the
definitions , Good practice at least to try seeking info on all items that
show up on scans , settings etc. Thank You .

Glb*.tmp

I have found some information on a different branch of the virus that you have obtained...



this should help you just to know what ur dealing with. it is a pain to get rid of tho i have just had to reinstall my system because it had chewed it to pieces.

it uninstalled my MOTHERBOARD DRIVERS!!!! :( not cool!
*after rebuild and clean install* works fine but it was just a pain in the butt trying to find it, removing it, finding where the missing file was that regenerated the whole lot again and waking up 1 morning to a blue screen and my motherboard beeping...

neway hope the link helps

mostly all of the GLB*.TMP files are trouble from my experience but then again... its not everyday ive come across this.

re: What is GLB.tmp

I -think- I figured out what these files are for. I just updated to the latest Yahoo Messenger and that process keeps prompting me during the installation process. There are a half-dozen of them and they're only popping up during the download/installation/upgrade process. My firewall (Online Armor) popped up the other day with a request for a GLB*.tmp file and when I looked online, nobody knew what it was for. Matter of fact, I only got 4 results on google for the one that prompted me (GLB26A.tmp). So, obviously, I blocked it. But my Yahoo hasn't been working since then and I didn't connect the two until just now.

Just wanted to get that out there so people who know more than me can verify this. If it's not Yahoo then I just allowed several of them to work on my computer and I'm in twubble. *giggle*
