Catching up on mail here.
I felt I should throw my 2 cents in here.
I unchecked something called msbb.exe (this file was talked about in the
group recently as being spyware) and when I rebooted after making the
change, my PC would not completely start up. It would freeze, grunt,
restart and go black. I had to end up reformatting my drive. I had tried
everything (safe mode etc) to get my PC started but by removing this file
from the startup, it stuffed something up.
Sorry I don't have more specific details but this was about 2 years ago when
I was using WIN98.
Just wanted to warn ya.

Lionel, don't be frightened to uncheck program files that you know of -
it is completely reversible. 45 items is one hell of a lot of programs
to want to use on a daily basis!
Your choice though,
Cheers
