That address will be unique to your computer.
Where are you seeing it?
Why do you want to delete it?

Thanks for the page. I will read over it. I see it on my computer, and I want to delete it because I don't think iut should be there. There is nothing else similar to it. thanks for the reply barbOriginally Posted by jephree

Can you please be more specific to where it is?
Example: C:/Program Files/XXX/YYY/ZZZ etc.
Any software install will carry .cab files. Many are deleted after install.

Pardon my confusion but what do you mean by open my comp?
Do you mean that it appears on the desktop? Or is it listed under: My Computer?
Right click it and then choose Properties. What does that say?
Newbie
It is under My Computer where it says programs etc. I will try right clicking it. I will be right back
Newbie
Me again I right clicked it and it says Cabinet File
Opens with Windows Explorer
Location is C drive

Can you open it? If so you might find a more detailed address.
Do you know what software you installed on May 17th?
