Even stopping Outpost didn't fix the problem. Booting to safe mode with networking, making sure no Outcrap processes was running didn't fix it either. It must be starting some hidden process or modifying system files or something like that. I'm not sure exactly what was causing it but removing Outpost fixed it. Thanks God I was only using the trial. Mikkel. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Everyone is raving about the all-new Yahoo!
