I downloaded this program called pc mighty max. it said i had an enormous amount of problems with registy entries and shortcuts. this seemed fishy to me, how could i have so many problems??? So i decided to run norton system works and be clean to see if i had been slacking on routine maintanence. Evereything was fine with those programs. I also noticed that the program took up a lot of processing power and was always running. I then decided to remove the program all together.
Removing it took a minute to figure out as well. I had to use a freeware program to remove the program as i couldn't remove it with add/remove. I haven't had any problems, but this program made me worry a little bit since i couldn't find any information about it save for a few small forum mentions. I think it's time to gather some info. on it. What do the geek Gods say?? I am VERY curious. -------------------- "Bachelors know more about women than married men; if they didn't they'd be married too."
