Creative Technology Ltd Files

These are the Creative Technology Ltd files I have collected, thanks to the FreeFixer users.

The FreeFixer tool treats files from Creative Technology Ltd as safe, which means that the Creative Technology Ltd 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 Creative Technology Ltd file(s). I'm pretty sure those detections are incorrect and that the files are safe. It's unlikely that Creative Technology Ltd would ship a malware file.
