I have had a major problem recently, thinking it was sasser and maybe mydoom.
I have finally after 6 hours last evening and 3 hours this morning traced that I had a dialer.exe installed which was causing the problem, of course as I am on cable modem it couldn't dial. I have now run msconfig and found 4 entries which are blank in the start up item and command list, although they are ticked to start up. Can I safely remove the ticks and stop them starting? as they appear to be nothing ? Any help / advice would be appreciated.
