Notes about the DMP file extension:

Incorrect file associations could be the result of underlying issues within your PC system. As such it is highly recommended to scan your PC for invalid registry entries, unused processes and other unfavourable system settings to identify slowdown issues.

The DMP file type is primarily associated with 'Screen or Memory Dump'. One .DMP file that has popped up in questions before is VETLOG.DMP. A search gives two possibilities for this file: Viewpoint Media Player, which is a browser add-on for displaying 3D files and, earlier, a file apparently associated with eTrust Anti-Virus. The Viewpoint Media Player is the more likely answer as the earlier search that yielded the AV software likely keyed on something that the AV software found and not the software itself. In either case, if you one or the other installed and are having problems with this file contact the vendor concerned directly.
