C:\Windows\system32\winload.exe detected: Trace.File.PC Tattletale

What is this "winload.dll" and what i must do with him?
 
Vista I did some checking into this. Apparently, the winload in Vista works
with the boot process and is NOT an infection. In XP, it IS. I left
winload.dll/.exe alone in my Vista as it is a necessary component. Doubtless,
this and other issues will be resolved as Vista becomes more widely used and
is released on the market.
