Re: speed

Hi Ed,

Please ensure Hidden files and folders are viewable:

Go to My Computer->Tools->Folder Options->View tab:
* Under the Hidden files and folders heading:
* select Show hidden files and folders.
* Uncheck Hide protected operating system files (recommended) option.
*Also, make sure there is no checkmark beside Hide file extensions for known file types.
* Click OK.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Using 'My Computer', navigate to and delete the following Files

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Desktop\icons1\Eds\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\Desire-uninstall.exe


The aformentioned is a very odd path, also do a search via Start>Search>All files and folders for Desire-uninstall.exe and delete any instance.

Let me know if that made any difference in system performance.
