what is "DEPLOYJAVA1.DLL"?

is it safe? is it a malware? made a research on it, but couldn't find enough info on it. anyone else seen this or received any alerts via their amw/av/asw regarding this dll?
thanks

 

Couldn't find anything? ThreatExpert's got your boys checklist page. If not, find raymond.cc's "DEPLOYJAVA1.DLL (virus)?" thread.

 

Consider - no path, no (if any) alerting application, no discovery reference or process list. What sort've response are you awaiting?

 

If you have Java 6 update 20 or 21, you'll have deployJava1.dll in the system32 directory.

 

I have Java 6 Update 20 and do not have this in system32.
Not anywhere on my HDD active partition.

 

I have Java 6 update 20 and deployjava1.dll does reside in my system32 folder.

 

Really?

 

Ditto with respect to Java 6 Update 21 on 4 different machines - 1 laptop running Vista and 3 desktops running XP SP3 - all have deployjava1.dll in the system32 folder.

 

and if it helps a sha-1 hash of that dll on my machine

Focus, reciprocate. Look through what's been posted and supply participating members with constructive feedback - simple.

 

I need to talk to you GlobalForce about an older topic. I tried messaging you but it said it's not available right now. Can you help me?

 

Welcome iluvhp87 - good to go! Ya, you've got mail.

 

Not readily apparent leaves much to assumption. Ambiguity's an approach I doubt many here embrace.

 

Update:

I found "deployJava1.dll" in Safe Mode in Windows/System32.
I wasn't able to find it by looking in Normal Mode, must've been hidden.
The sha-1 deployJava1.dll didn't match Cudni's sha-1 hash value according to Hashtabs.

I wonder if Trojan.Fakealert in Unallocated space has anything to do with it?

 

Mind posting it?

FWIW, I got: DAFE1CD145741E40E218FB40FA66BB7D13CEE084

at the fourth poster, he repeats what at least 3 others have said here earlier,
it's simply a renaming in jre 20 of the old files in jre 19 and before.

 

@prius04

I deleted it while in Safe Mode.
The hash value looks very similar to Sadeghi85's hash value.
Since i deleted it I can't be positive, and scanning with GMER crashed my system.
If I have the opportunity, I will see if it's in unallocated space an restore it.

 

Same here.
