    OK, done

    Can you tell me what this program is ?
    Network Play System (Patching)
    No, but If it is something I need I caould allways reinstall it later if we need to get rid of it.

    Hi
    It might be nothing at all, lets check further
    Run hijackthis click >config >msie tools > open uninstall manager
    hilight "Network Play System (Patching) " over to the right tell us what it says under uninstall command, you can left click in that box hold down and enclose the info there, then right click copy

    One example
    C:\Program Files\CopyURL\Uninstall.exe C:\PROGRA~1\CopyURL\Install.log

    Im Glad we could help
    Since the problems are solved Im going to close the topic now, this keeps others with similar problems from posting there logs/question here, they should start a new topic.
