artist Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 I have noticed that this takes a lot of memory and slows down the computer.In a Google search I read that if it's on C:/Explorer.exe that is could be a virus. I couldn't see how to get rid of it anywhere - I've never been notified of any virus either.The search showed:ScreenShot009.bmp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
