thank you for that information - - but, i guess my main question is how do i get
the other OFF my computer ?  it's not in my add /remove, it's in my 'all
programs' and i tried deleting it from there, only for it to reappear when i
restarted my computer along with the pop up for it.

according to mcafee, this is a potentially hazardous file - - should i do a
system restore, worst case scenario ?

thanks !

hello !

i am trying (for the first time, ever) to save some pics, from my
folders, onto disk.  i'm not using a cd but a dvd - supposedly, that's
not to matter, but i'll mention it anyway.

so, i keep getting a pop up box saying that windows is have a difficult
time saving my pics - what do i want it to do - retry or cancel.

i hit retry, but it's not working - - and i can't find any information
to tell me WHY it's having issues.

any help ?

thanks !
tina
