Re: Errors with Windows XP



Hi,

Two are garbage, two are probably viruses.

> - nxzhpmm.exe

Virus, see: Removing trojans:
http://rickrogers.org/fixes.htm#Trojan

> - mm_try.exe

I think you meant mm_tray.exe, which is part of Music Match. It doesn't need
to load at boot, click start/run and type msconfig and disable this on the
startup tab.

> - ldpdkek.exe

Another virus, same instructions as the first one.

> - ypager.exe

Yahoo pager, same thing as Music Match - unnecessary to load at startup. You
may find that you will need to reinstall both of those applications.
