Running Norton Internet Security & Firefox 6.0.2 when Norton reported file xpatlcom.dll as suspicious. Not doing anything unusaual with Firefox (I was on Amazon, I think).

Only I'm on XP, running FF 7.0.1. Norton suddenly popped up this file. Have found no info on net about it. Norton claims it is safe, but has NO info regarding owner.

Okay, so it's safe -- but I still don't know what it IS. What is company TODO, what sort of program is TODO. I noticed it gets put in the Mozilla plugin folder -- is it something to do with firefox? Or is it a plugin?

I really would like to know too. Norton says it's safe, but what is it. I WANT IT OUT. I think it's doing crap to my computer when I'm not looking!

What is the location of that xpatlcom.dll file?

Is it part of a Firefox extension and located in the extensions folder in the Firefox Profile Folder?

You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
