Ext2Fsd
from Matt Wu
Overview
Ext2Fsd is a program developed by Matt Wu. Upon installation and setup, it defines an auto-start registry entry which makes this program run on each Windows boot for all user logins. It adds a background controller service that is set to automatically run. Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. A scheduled task is added to Windows Task Scheduler in order to launch the program at various scheduled times (the schedule varies depending on the version). The software installer includes 6 files and is usually about 2.13 MB (2,230,484 bytes). A majority of the PCs this is running on, most OS versions are Windows 7 (SP1). While about 83% of users of Ext2Fsd come from the United States, it is also popular in United Kingdom.
