I'm afraid I don't have the technical knowledge to reliably evaluate what could be removed and may mess things up, so it would be less risky to live with that I suppose. Although I think I'm a reasonably competent user with the basic programs I utilise, my profession is law, unfortunately not I T solutions.

Most are paid to include trial versions from other companies. Most of these, like Norton, you could not pay me to use. They also install a ton of accessory and extra software for supporting their hardware. Some run in the background and are meant to keep your drivers from them up-to-date. Unfortunately, I have found all software from manufacturers not usable! I usually attempt once. I remove or disable almost all of their software. *Don Marang* Vinux Software Development Coordinator - vinuxproject.org <http://www.vinuxproject.org/> There is just so much stuff in the world that, to me, is devoid of any real substance, value, and content that I just try to make sure that I am working on things that matter. -- Dean Kamen On 7/11/2011 1:46 AM, Van Der Walt Riana wrote: > No, my pc is brand new, or was, having this hassle since the first > moment I received it and experienced the symptom.
