thank you!!!!!!!!!! you solved my little crisis.
this is the only solution, symantec doesnt even mention p2pnetwork.exe

i "removed" everything like you have written, now i do a search in my regedit with p2pnetwork instead of p2pnetwork.exe and i find many entries. should i remove those also?

thanks again for taking the efford to write the whole thing down very accurate.

Just to confirm - I checked and I also had the MSIEXEC created very close to when the problem struck and Windows Installer was also set to Manual. So I'm presuming it is all related.

Thanks again.

I had this as well and it was caused by a rootkit (read in about them in the new pcworld mag.) I have norton's antivirus, spybot, and system mechanic'
s spyware program and none of them were able to remove my problem. I researched about it on the net and found that AntiVir Gaurd and rootkitrevealer along with spyblaster was able to clean the problem.
