File purpose and description:
This mnyside.dll program would have been installed by you but may have occasionally arrived as preinstalled software on some computers. The actual disk and folder location is shown for you below, always verify your file is in the proper location to make sure it is not virus or spyware related. Sometimes spyware or virus writers use the same name on the software and just locate it elsewhere in an attempt to fool you. This mnyside.dll file is a BHO (browser helper object) that is associated with Microsoft Money. (You can view your BHO programs and startup programs that are running in the background on your computer by using a program like Complete Cleanup). This DLL module runs in your Internet Explorer web browser. This file is considered safe and is not virus or spyware related. If you aren't using Microsoft Money, then I would surely remove this from my browser. (See the details below for the actual location of this file.)
Actual file or task name:
mnyside.dll
File type:
This is a dll module.
File or folder location:
This file should be found on your hard drive at C:\Program Files\Microsoft Money\System\mnyside.dll
General information:
Be aware that many tasks will be similiar names to existing tasks or processes.
You can always view the running tasks on your computer by pressing ctrl-alt-del to view the windows
"task manager", and then view the "processes" tab. This will show you all tasks running or currently active
on your PC. Although this shows you all running tasks, it does not show dll file thats are loaded, as they
get loaded as part of other processes. Many spyware writers attempt to hide their files
on your computer, for example, mnyside.dll may be intentionally misspelled to look like a similiar task, or spyware may be named very
similiar to a Windows system task. The reason they do this is so you cannot easily recognize the name in your tasklist
as I have mentioned above. Make sure always check the location of the file if you are concerned.
You can always find the location of mnyside.dll on your computer by using your Windows search options, but
I will also try to list the file location of every file described on this website, so you can verify the correct location. You can view the entire tasklist directory with the link below.
