Which I don't have and never installed their software (nobody touches this
system other than me). Didn't make sense to me then nor does it now. But
if you don't feel it was a fair question to ask here that's fine.

For the record though, I just realized I could delete the file from my
Accounts Info which means it's gone now anyway.

Thanks for the help and the kind words...

I never said it wasn't a fair question, but _you_ could have said you
had done the Google search, read that it's for a Canon scanner, and
asked how it could have gotten onto your computer. Or, to put it
another way, how could Dave or anyone else possibly have known you knew
what you already knew without you specifically saying so? In fact, you
specifically stated that you had found nothing.

Anyway, I can't think of anyway it could have gotten onto your computer
at all and into your login items without someone having installed the
Canon software. If you migrated to this Mac from another one, it could
have been on that other Mac.

I was just asking what the file was. Next time I will post the search
engine links just to show what I did find and to satisfy your hunger for
correctness in questions. A simple question is all it was. Could have,
should have, would have etc...

It was a clean build from Apple dealer in town here. New, in the box
pre-installed. Where it came from doesn't really matter now as it appears
to be gone.

Anyway, thanks for your help again ;-)

I replied to your post that I had used Google & Yahoo and found nothing. I
suppose nothing that made sense to me would have been better. I've never
installed any Canon software for a scanner or any Canon product nor for my
camera either my camera is a Pentax and didn't have to install anything for
it.


Yet just the same, thanks for your help too as at least you did
explain/confirm what the file was for.

I apologize for the inconvenience caused by all this.

OK?

And did I or did I not answer that question quickly and directly in my
first post to this thread? All this other stuff was to explain Dave's
response. That's another fine mess you've gotten me into, Dave!
