Error: Signature check failed for file ER_CONFIG.sig

Hello,
Signatures are electronic security mark added to files. It allows one to verify the publisher of a file and also verify that the file hasn’t changed since it was digitally signed.
If the signature check of a file fails it could mean that the file has been tampered with (by a virus mostly). I suggest the following actions:
1. Update your anti-virus software.
2. Get a new ER_CONFIG.sig file and replace it with the other file.
3. Restore your system to an earlier time.
I hope I’ve been of help.
