        Sorry allan, that link did not work for me somehow, even from the address bar.
        But when it states "HKLM run once" from what i have read so far, is that it runs after you login, so do you need it running all the time.

        No, it does not need to run - I don't use it. It's just a module that gathers crash & hang data from users with Vista or Windows 7 who agree to report it.

        Sorry about the bad link - I was just trying to cite the url from which I copied the info.

          Any time Carl.

          BTW, check the options in WinPatrol and make sure Allow Plus Info Data Collection is not checked.

            Just out of interest allan, why was it still running after so many days, i thought this only ran once, then deleted the "Runonce " reg key after it notified you about the error, or is it possible it was still running because i did not report it.....
