I opologize for continuing this thead but I still have not found the
persistent file that keeps interrupting my Windows but maybe this is it. In Event Viewer there is a file that is listed frequently called BackWeb Plug-in-9867844. processlibrary.com states this is a security risk and should be purged. How might I do this if all the anti-"stuff" doesn't detect it and eliminate it for me automatically? I don't see an uninstall for this and is probably imbedded in more than one place. Thank you all. Anybody. Have you found the answer Steve? Bill -- b.l.

It has bought my pc to a halt, no known viruses, eliminated hardware and interestingly it doesnt happen in safe mode. Affects all windows and goes inactive after just 2 seconds, effectively preventing u from typing anything. This is a nightmare, ne1 else who has resolved this I would be most grateful to hear from u. thanks Steve xp sp2, norton antivirus, spybot, Lavasoft all have done nothing to help trace or prevent |

Anybody. Have you found the answer Steve? Backweb is a bit of code that gets used for many different purposes. OEMs will use it as part of their software that checks their websites for updates. This is a legitimate use of Backweb but it can still be a troublesome item to have running all of the time. Most folks will disable the OEM's auto update features to remove it from their startup. There are some not so legitimate uses for Backweb as well. Usually anti-spyware programs will catch these instances for you. -- Sharon F MS-MVP ~ Windows Shell/User |
