    I got my 5720 and installed my virus scan software (mcaffe) and ran a scan and it came back with a potential unwanted program (C:\WINDOWS\system32\fngmhlib.dll). I have tried to research what this is and can't find anything usefull on it. I haven't installed any new programs yet so it had to be from the build. Also a friend ordered almost the same laptop the day after me and his has the same file and gets the same warning from a virus scan. Does anyone know what this dll is and if we should remove it?

    I'll move this to the software forum for you, you'll get more responses there.

    Found this tidbit here-
    http://lihuasoft.net/source/show.php?id=1012
    TFnugryMouseNotify is a simple component that encapsulates Windows system wide mouse hook functionality. The TFnugryMouseNotify component uses FNGMHLIB.DLL library, where the actual hook procedure resides. Make sure you include this library when deploying applications that use the component.

    Looks like some sort of mouse/trackpad component. Most of the sites that come up when google for that dll are in chinese or japanese, so i can't read them...
    I'd posit that it's something from Clevo (being a taiwan company) for the trackpad.

    If it were bad, you'd find it on all the anti-spyware sites. I found one mention in a thread on the german forums for HijackThis (a very good anti-spyware/hijack program), and it lists the dll under "not a virus".
