Virus or not? mc21.tmp, mc22.tmp, mc23.tmp
We received a lot of user requests regarding mc21.tmp, mc22.tmp, mc23.tmp files.
Usually the strange driver files are located in the Windows\Temp or in the user temp folder.
Mc21.tmp, mc22.tmp, mc23.tmp are related to Spyware Doctor software installed on your computer.
Note! The latest version of Spysweeper includes Spyware Doctor.
Spyware Doctor creates new driver file at every Windows boot.
After the loading driver into memory Spyware Doctor deletes the driver file
because it is not required for Windows system.
This why the file doesn't exist in the Windows Temp folder.
Quick test
It's very easy to check if mcXX.tmp files are leigitimate.
- Open Spyware Doctor, choose Settings.
- Select "Startup Settings".
- Uncheck "Run at Windows startup" and restart your computer.
- Open RegRun after reboot and check that the "mcXX.tmp" driver doesn't exist in the Drivers list.
Good luck!
