    Hi All
    Could someone tell me all I need to know about TFTP.EXE? It is supposed to be Trivial File Transfer Protocol and it keeps wanting to call home starting today. It is in D:\WINNT\System32. Thanks.
    Could I or should I delete it?

    get rid of it. Win2k doesn't come with TFTP. If you have it, chances are you have a trojan.
    Most TFTP clients are used to update firmware on a router, or update a switch.
    If you didn't put it there, update your virus def's, and scan your system. Chances are you've got a trojan.
