DIAL - 0% Detection Rate *

Did you just run into a download or a file on your computer that has been digitally signed by DIAL? If that's the case, please read on.

You will probably see DIAL when running the file. The publisher name is then displayed as the "Verified publisher" in the UAC dialog as the screenshot shows:

You can also view the DIAL certificate with the following procedure:

  1. Open up Windows Explorer and locate the DIAL file
  2. Right-click on the file and select Properties
  3. Click the Digital Signatures tab
  4. Click the View Certificate button

Here's a screenshot of a file digitally signed by DIAL:

As you can see in the screencap above, Windows reports that "This digital signature is OK". This implies that the file has been published by DIAL and that the file has not been tampered with.

If you click the View Certificate button shown in the screenshot above, you can view all the details of the certificate, such as when it was issued, who issued the certificate, how long it is valid, and so on. You can also view the address for DIAL, such as the street name, city and country.

VeriSign Class 3 Code Signing 2010 CA has issued the DIAL certificates. You can also see the details of the issuer by clicking the View Certificate button shown in the screenshot above.
