Ending Program: Dummy
#1
So recently, when ever I shut down/restart my computer, Windows gives me window: "Ending Program: Dummy"

I googled and it said something about malware/virus so I decided to do windows search.

I found these:

dummy_threading.py.0160FC08_F3D9_4869_9D41_C6...
dummy_thread.py.0160FC08_F3D9_4869_9D41_C6...

in folder D:\games2\data1. Both under 5kb in size.

However the weird thing is that they are last modified 6.8.2005... The "Ending Program: Dummy window" only started appearing this or last month.

Should I and is it safe to delete these 2 files?

EDIT:

In case someone asks, I know almost nothing about computers.

they're uncompiled python programs. Open them up in notepad and post the text here.

I have no clue how to open it, since it doesn't have the "open in program" option. I went to notepad, clicked the Data1 folder and my computer tried to open the whole data1 in Notepad and failed.

I suck at this...

EDIT:
Ad-Aware Scan says that the folder is clean.
