Inactive Leonardo.msi

[rtimesr]

Seems to be linked to the Firefox highlighter. When deleting Highlighter w/ MS Add/Remove tool I get msg "Network error when trying to read from c:\windows\installer\leonardo.msi. The uninstall bar backs up to zero then issues msg "Fatal error during installation". Can't find leonardo.msi with search. Never saw a pct done bar back up before. Any ideas?

Welcome aboard

What are your issues and what exactly are you trying to do?

 

[rtimesr]

Get rid of Leonard.msi

I assume it is not good to have if I don't know what it is or what it does. Could it be benign? If so, OK I will forget it. Any info on this thing appreciated

I can't find much info about Leonardo.msi
Where can you see it?

Saw it when trying to Remove Firefox highlighter. Also saw desc at http://www.prevx.com/filenames/2015254223198372532-X1/LEONARDO.MSI.html

Previx doesn't say it's a dangerous file.
I use Firefox highlighter as well.

I have d/l the tools and instructions and will proceed tomorrow on a sweep. Just thought the backward running of the % done bar was interesting and a perhaps in your face. Why would the file be hiding?

Also ran ESET and found nothing.

Well after the msg "Network error...." the task completion bar (meter) showing removal activity started running backward from 100% to 0% then the "Fatal error during installation" came on

 

[Broni]

Well, post all logs and we'll go from there...

 

[rtimesr]

Anyway highlighter is still there.

 

[rtimesr]

OK will do thank you much
