My mother is stubborn after I repeated have told her to lost AOL will not get rid of it. Aol's safety program keep displaying a message saying C:\windows\s?mbols\u?erinit.exe My mother being the worrier that she is, wants to know what it is and whether she should go snooping and delete it. Rest be assured, I turned off the computer and won't let her turn it on until I figure it out. Could someone please help me either explain it, or tell me what to do.
