I've just run a hijack this scan and noticed that a number of the 023 services have 'files missing' and/or 'uknown owners'
there isnt anything particularly wrong with my laptop, with the exception that it has slowed down a lot recently. i was just wondering if it would be safe to 'fix' the 023 services with missing files/owners? i have put up the scan log; also if anyone fancied looking through the rest of the log and pointing out anything else that can be 'fixed' that would be greatly appreciated
thanks in advance
