What is tmpFile1.exe?

Ugnius Kiguolis The mastermind Published Updated

tmpFile1.exe is a fraudulent executable file, which is related to AntiSpyGuard. Once this program is installed on the system, it starts displaying exaggerated alerts that all report about hundreds of viruses. All this is done for trying to make people scared and trick them into purchasing licensed AntiSpyGuard's version. If you don't want to lose your money and banking loggins, passwords, etc., you should ignore all alerts that belong to this rogue. For eliminating it from your computer, scan it with FortectIntego.

As soon as AntiSpyGuard is installed on the system, it drops tmpFile1.exe file. The primary purpose of this file is to start a parasite or launch some of its components. However, it may also work on its own and initiate various problems on the system. Once executed, tmpFile1.exe file may start tracking its victim and then, after collecting an appropriate amount of personal information, send it to its owners. Please, do NOT let tmpFile1.exe run on your computer!

Please note that tmpFile1.exe file may also be legitimate because any program can be named anything. No matter that such cases are really rare, you should always double check files before leaving them or eliminating them from the system. For that we recommend using RegCure Pro.
