Can you elaborate more on the details of the file?

I suppose the url is recreated by your game 'Steam' or something else, everytime you start it or when it's running. -{ Quote: "Some info:
The easiest way to look inside an .URL file, is to open it inside Notepad. The content (in its simplest form) of an Internet Shortcut could look like this: [InternetShortcut]
URL=http://www.wilderssecurity.com" }-When opening the URL in Notepad, you could see where it's connecting to or get some more info about it.

I hope it can help. ;)

I think the file is used by the game to connect to the game's website.

JoshSantos, wilders staff usually remove email addresses from threads and ask members to avoid doing so. I have contacted the forum staff and asked them to remove your email address from your thread as it could be picked up by a spam bot.

Hi JoshSantos,-{ Quote: " and its giving me a sp.dll which is a Trojan... and with it on my computer i get Hijackers and Torjans like crazy... so if anyone can help me..." }- WIlders no longer provides help in analysing HijackThis logs, but you could take a look here (http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=42148) to get some help to clean your PC.
Many sites provide expert service with HijackThis logs.

or you could try to clean your PC yourself by following the advice given here (http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=50662).

If cleaning it yourself doesn't help, you could still post an HJT log at one of those sites.

I hope this helps. ;)
