Hi Mike, I have been installing all of these updates. However, I have an annoying program that keeps trying to butt in when I start up my computer. I think it is due to a logitech cam software I tried installing about a week ago that did not work out, was too old for windows 7, so I uninstalled it but this program .exe file keeps trying to come in at the start of my computer starting up. I want to rid of it somehow and they only thing I could think of was maybe doing a system restore but then I would lose all my windows updates wouldn't I?
