Not sure if you are at work or on your own computer but you do not need admin provileges to install it. Sorry if I am telling you what you already know, but I recommend that software as invaluable with a very VERY big caveat. It flags non-standard configuration, some of which may be just fine or something that your IT department did on purpose, so it should be used with extreme care. Usually the publisher recommends posting the log and waiting for help, but you are in IT and you are smart, right? It's probably not a good idea to post your emplyer's config online either, if that is which conputer this is. Google what you cannot identify and ask a lot of questions. I looked at Gel's a while back (I've had a little training in this software and it flagged somethng that was getting confirmed as of conscern, but he assured me it was for one of his games and definitely just fine. It will defintely catch a browser hijack if that is what is happening tho. On Mon, Aug 31, 2009 at 8:55 AM, Dana <[email protected]> wrote: > the first few are the san francisco and la papers.
