Thanks guys I did a more thorough cleaning, as Bichur suggested, including deleting the cursorxp folder from the registry files. Everything seems to be good again. Even tested with couple reboots.

CursorXP crashes on startup in Stardock Support General WinCustomize Forums

After the last re-install of Windows, CursorXP (paid version) crashes on startup. It will either not apply at all, or it will apply the cursor and then lock up the desktop, giving me the "CursorXP has encountered a problem and must close" message. At that point I usually have to do a hard reboot, since I can't see my cursor and the desktop is usually locked up anyway. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling through Stardock Central, but still g

Reply to Do you eat at your PC? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I'll sometimes eat a cookie or maybe some chips at the PC, but I don't like getting grease or goo on my trackball, makes it stick. (I can usually tell when my 10 year old has been on, as the trackball will hardly move from whatever sticky stuff he leaves all over it.) I usually have a beer while I'm at the PC, but I've gotten into a bad habit of setting my beer in front of the keyboard while I'm reading something, then I forget its there and

I see signs posted on telephone poles all the time saying I can make $1000 a day from my home computer. Think I should check it out? Anybody that advertises on utility poles has to be on the up-and-up, right?

Reply to Firefox 1.0.4 Update in Personal Computing WinCustomize Forums

Just out of curiosity, why was it so important to uninstall before upgrade installs with the pre-1.0 releases, but now you can upgrade on-the-fly? Not that I'm complaining, but I got so used to doing the ininstall when upgrading, that I wonder how they were able to add the live upgrade feature.

Reply to Do you like your job? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Do I like my job? Depends on what day you ask. Most days I like it. I get to work on/with a variety of computers (servers, Macs, PCs, Portable PCs running WinCE), and I pretty much get to set my own priorities. Other days when I'm struggling through corporate burocracy (sp?) just to get a simple part ordered, or else trying to put together an analysis in an impossible amount of time, I wish I could just walk away.

Cool. On a more serioius note, there was a possible java-scripting exploit found that affects FF and Moz suite. So far there are no reports of anyone actually using the exploit though. Visit http://www.mozilla.org/security/announce/mfsa2005-42.html for the workaround until the next upgrade is released.

Wierd, the words "p0p-up" (intentionally mis-spelled) in my previous post shows as a paid link for stopzilla when fiewing in FF. I switch to IE and don't see it. If kona can see them then I know it can't be a FF only issue.

Are you using the same release of FF on all 3 machines? Have you checked to make sure you're running the latest nVidia drivers? If you are, then you might try rolling back to an earlier driver. You could also try using a different FF theme and see if you get the same problem.
