HI,

The psat few days I have noticed that my hard drive starts running for no apparent reason. I have run AVG, Have TCMonitor active, and AdAware is up to date and running.

Ran HiJack this and noticed a couple things that concern me.

O12 - Plugin for .spop: C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\Plugins\NPDocBox.dll
and
O8 - Extra context menu item: &Viewpoint Search - res://C:\Program Files\Viewpoint\Viewpoint Toolbar\ViewBar.dll/CXTSEARCH.HTML
and
C:\Program Files\iPod\bin\iPodService.exe

Should I be concerned about these files? No one has ever had anything to do with an ipod on this computer.

The full log is below.


thank you so much for any assistance.

Beth
