    Alright I got a new question, today I started my comp and DW had a new popup telling me that rundll32.exe was attempting to access an isolated resource something about windows and cookies. Does anyone have any idea what happened and why I received this popup for the first time? TIA!

    rundll32.exe is an executable running dll files. It you have this popop, it means rundll32.exe was runned as untrusted. I would advise you to check DW's log file, but it's limited to 50 records, so all the interesting events are already lost. Does the issue is reproducible? Maybe, it's about USB flash drive? I had a similar things when I was researching Kido, running from USB- it's using rundll32.dll to work.

    Actually an untrusted .dll was loaded to rundll32.exe and that made (legacy wise) rundll32 run untrusted too..had that thing with an online scanner i tried..all i had to do,to sort it is find the .dll that was in untrusted and turn it into trusted.
