Downloaded and ran Eusing FRC. Worked like a champ. Found 947 'issues'
and repaired them all. Ran it again, and it found none. However, it
seemed to have deleted some McAfee stuff. No problemo, however, an
update on the internet solved that problem.

Did you notice any performance improvement ??


I was just about to comment on that. When I cranked it up this AM,
Windows seemed much faster than it had been, as did the loading of
Agent. Ditto with Mozilla. Hell, just removing 900+lines in the
registry must have saved a little time somewhere!



The best way to speed up your machine is to stop unnecessary processes
from loading. Get all of those unused tool bars, media players and
browsers out of there unless you are actively using them. For god's
sake, don't load office unless you are actually using office.


A new one popped up there a few weeks back, it's something to do with
'Indexing'. Don't know where it came from, whether or not I need it,
or what.

When I double click it, I get a window titled, "Windows Search
Results".
