Intel Corporation Files

These are the Intel Corporation files I've gathered, thanks to the FreeFixer users.

The FreeFixer tool treats files from Intel Corporation as trusted, which means that the Intel Corporation files will appear with a green background and that there's no removal checkbox for the file. However, as you can see in the scan results below, a few of the anti-virus scanners detects the Intel Corporation file(s). I'm pretty sure those detections are incorrect and that the files are safe. It is unlikely that Intel Corporation would ship a malware file.
