Hi again Elrond, seem to have removed the problems following your kind iinstructions. In fact my computer was coming up before with key missing for F-secure (before I removed it) on bootup but this is no more. I guess it is now ok to remove the residual Sony common files know?
Computer much 'quieter' although occasional jumps in CPU indicated when using Mozilla(going out of Mozilla stops this).
By the way are the following OK?:
016 DPF 4D7F48CO ... Player 2K2 (no idea what this is - was on Blubster recently and have been on the old style Napster filesharing in the past )
023 Macrovision ... no idea what this is either
I have today deleted files I came across in:
documents and settings\keith.b.jones\local settings\temp\_is 16
this appeared something to do with freedomcleanup utility (TELUS network??) but was not an executive file
Once again many thanks for your assistance and the opportunity to learn more about my laptop
Highest Regards
Keith
ps is Win Patrol potentially problematic (for the future, given that i possess new anti virus software and that my external Creative soundblaster card has just stopped working properly, so need to re-download software!)
