I have recently been experiencing an error message, from xtreamlok. It
seems recently when I have been trying to open vatious files this error pops
up, wont let me open the file, and in fact closes whatever program I was
trying to view the file with. I didnt experience this until after I
installed Norton Anti Virus 2003, and even after I uninstalled NAV (for
other annoying reasons) I still experience this error. I cant confirm NAV
installed this application (it seems to run as a hidden service) but I only
experienced it after the NAV.

I have not been able to uninstall this application, I dont see it in my list
of services running, and the only internet help I found was to delete a
xl.exe file which I did to no avail. Any help in removing this application
(or at least determining why it is there and what it is doing.) would be
appreciated. I know it supposedly checks for potential "copyright/license
infringement" but it has appeard on some non-copyrighted AVI files.

That link doesnt give any information on the application, or how to remove
it. I have already removed all references to it from my registry but it is
still loading from somewhere
