Title: C:\\WINDOWS\\FCVRIN~1.exe and C:\\WINDOWS\\mptjg.exe
Post by: davbaseball01 on November 23, 2006, 07:27:03 PM

Whenever I start up my computer, two black boxes called "C:\WINDOWS\FCVRIN~1.exe" and "C:\WINDOWS\mptjg.exe" pop up. They dont seem to be causing any problems, but they are kind of annoying. I would appreciate it if anyone could tell me what they are. Thanks in advance.

Sometimes, it's not just good enough from disabling an error on startup
Let's not hide it, but let's get rid of the error
If you get a chance, post the hijackthis log from this computer please
