Hi

I uninstalled Pest Patrol some time ago but every time I restart it makes a folder in "common files" called Scanner containing a dll file called ppctl.dll. This file periodicaly instigates "blue screen of death" saying it has terminated windows as this file is a bad image. If I delete it, it is rewritten on reboot HELP :whistling:

Please Click here!, and follow the recommendations in the guide.

If you're still having trouble, We'll need you to use a free diagnostic tool, Hijack This. Follow the instructions in step five of this guide, and reply here with your log.

Most of what Hijack This lists lists will be harmless or even essential, DO NOT delete or modify anything yet! Someone will be along to tell you what steps to take after you post the contents of the scan results.
