A bit of research suggests that they are dodgy, but they have been there for years (inspected some old images) and as far as I know nothing strange has happened to the OS.

873178 2010-04-05 06:00:00 Interesting you ask that one. I used have an excel spreadsheet with passwords and renamed to xxxxxx.dll in a windows directory.

Another person had moved all her music files into Windows so Dad did not know what she downloaded.

Back when I was using MSDos 3.3 I renamed the format command.

I have scanned them with Malware Bytes, Ad-aware, and Cureit, but none of them complained about these files. They don't ring any bells with you Speedy?

So what leads you to believe the said files are dodgy?
