Sorry dear but it is free. it is only a 740kb program and I'll send it to
you if you want. I have been a member of PC mag for years so I don't know if
they ask you to join to download. I have never paid them anything.
Yours Hank

Hi Cristy, I have a free program called Start Cop, I have a shortcut to it
on my desk top. When I go to defrag once a week I click the Start Cop and
stop everything then I turn off my DSL modem, I don't know if I have to do
that or not but my firewall and antivirus is off. Then run defrag on my C
drive the other drives will defrag while I read mail and things as lone as I
don't use a program that is on one of the drives. I will send you the Start
Cop if you want it. I found it on line at
http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0%2C4149%2C2173%2C00.asp
Yours Hank

Speaking of which, I am do to run scan disk and defrag. Last time I had a
major problem with either spybot or zone alarm cant remember which, I think
zone alarm and had to uninstall it. Now I dont recall what version and if
just cutting it off will be okay this time.
