it adds a startup manager to windows control panel so you can easily change what runs on startup. its also useful because it stores deleted keys in case you delete anything you want back ;)

Thanks LJ, but how do i solve the problem? :undecided:

RE: Computer Problem
NEVER trust any popup like that, unless its a REAL dialog and not just a big image filling in a javascript popup window. If it seems like just a still image, and you can click it everywhere, AD.

Also, never trust that shit unless its clearly from microsoft. Even having it appear while your on thier site is still not proof. Only windows Update messages and such can be trusted, and even still, windows update would not make popups. :P

well a website said it collects information about your computer but if its for games i can understand why...

for the others though just untick them and then go to the location where the file is located and try to delete the files, if you cant, use ctr+alt+delete to end them if they are running and try again.

then restart your pc to see if the problem still occurs

Hrmm, i found the isrvs file, and thats the thing that i must have installed, the icons that i found on the desktop are in the folder...

But it won't let me delete it - it says 'Make sure the disk is not full or write protected and that the file is not cuttently in use...

I closed everything and tryed deleting it but it still says the same thing...

Anyone know how to delete it?
