Thanks for the PM Hazel , and I will keep an eye on things I started checking the startup programs list mainly because I installed some software for a "HP-Printer" and was just checking and making sure that HP-auto update software wasn't enabled. While there at the startup list' I decided to do some home work and find out more about the other listed entries That's when I stumbled upon VTTrayp.exe
-
Hi Hazel Yes I have disabled it, and I'm not having any problems that I'm aware of I thought about a hjt log, but I didn't want to wast anyone's time since avast! & SUPERAntiSpyware found nothing.

Hey all In my startup list I have> (VTTrayp.exe) "Bleeping Computers" says it's a "IRCBOT" and says the other similar listing> (VTtrayp.exe) is part of "S3 Graphics Controllers" If I search for this file "spelling" either way' I get the same results? S3 VTTrayp.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32 S3 VTTRAYP.EXE C:\WINDOWS\OPTIONS\DRIVERS\VIDEO\P4M800 I did thorough scans with avast! & SUPERAntiSpyware, and my PC comes up clean. Is this some sort of false positive? do I have a problem? Date created 29/03/2006 for both files is the date I got this PC. All helpfull replies apreciated

Thanks guys I'll terminate the 3 modules that I mentioned. I have no need or reason to use any software apps that those modules provide protection for. Craig

OK before I start playing around with any settings , I thought I better ask 1st Provider> Instant Messaging...I don't use any IM program. 2nd Provider> Outlook/Exchange...I don't think I have it? It's not Outlook Express is it? 3rd Provider> P2P...I dont use any such program. Well my question is' can I simply click the (Terminate) button for each of these provider modules under provider actions? Craig

Hey razz I was using Sandboxie (free version) with IE7 & Outlook Express for months, and I wouldn't launch IE7 without it! I'm now using it with Firefox & Thunderbird

Hi humpty Below is my "Firefox Memory Usage" results. Memory cache device Number of entries: 0 Maximum storage size: 18432 KiB Storage in use: 4194303 KiB Inactive storage: 0 KiB How do I read these results? How many (MB of RAM) is being used? Thanks for the info

Hi YoKenny So your suggesting that I use Sandboxie with "Firefox & Thunderbird"?
-
Hi all I've made "Firefox" my default browser & "Thunderbird" my default e-mail program. When I was using IE7 & Outlook Express, I always ran these apps sandboxed! just to be on the safe side:) Should I bother with Sandboxie when using the Mozilla apps? Do I need to worry about "security" as I did with the Microsoft products? Thanks in advance

I have a Gigabyte "GA-8VM800PMD-775 Motherboard" and seeing the way these things are manufactured was amazing Thanks for the link Humpty

Hey Dennis! Congratulations

Hey thanks crofty59 I just use the "free" version, and I didn't realize that there was a (program update) feature that is so easy to use:-) Thanks

Hi guys I'm just wondering If I need to update from avast! version (4.8.1201) to (4.8.1229) If avast! version (4.8.1201) has an up to date (virus database) do I really need to update the program? And If I should update to version (4.8.1229) how do I do it? Will the later version just install over the current version? Or do I need to uninstall the version I have? before installing the later version? Will my Registration Key work with the newer version?

I have to disagree! any fool could jump from a helicopter onto a fish! Fishing is a great "sport" that takes some amount of skill, knowledge, and patience Hey Dennis , congrats on your knighthood to (Moderator) status!

Thanks for all the help I need an "AGP Bus Type" of video card, that will work with my 300 watt power supply.
-
Hi guys I'm trying to determine what "type" of video card I have? Is my card a "PCI" or "AGP" card? NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 128 MB Windows Device Manager Reports that the device is working properly. Location: PCI bus 1, device 0, function 0 GA-8VM800PMD-775 Motherboard Expansion Slots: 1 AGP slot & 3 PCI slots My video card is on the "AGP" slot, dose this mean that my video card is a "AGP" type of card? even though it's location is "PCI bus 1" I'm shopping for a new video card... and getting a little bit confused Thanks in advance for any helpful info

I'm another happy avast! 4.8 Home Edition user , and the only changes I made were on the... Report file page Selected> Create report file Selected> Overwrite existing Troubleshooting page Selected> Check for full screen applications (e.g. games) before displaying pop ups
-
Exactly what I have done! Avast 4.8 Home Edition is what I have happily changed over to

Sorry , I stand corrected. Or did "Grisoft" just do another back flip? Remember the deadline for AVG 7.5 Updates was supposed to be May 31, and now it's December 31. I hope every feature that is available in "AVG 8.0 free" stays fully functional for the life of the program for the sake of everyone that decides to install it.
