Hello,
I searched for Ylog, but I think Ylog.dll is something completely different.
What I found about Ylog is, that it's an app for cars and drivers, so someone, I guess a car rental company, can track the prepared vehicle. It's an Indian company, I think Yustafa is the name of the "C.E.O" or even the whole companies name.
Anyway, I saw that nobody commented here, so someone must throw the first stone xD and this was me .
