Comment: Hi,
I was just downloading a couple of game demos (Pain killer single player and multiplayer) Then everythink froze and I got a error message saying Something about Dr Watson post mortum Bug somethink..but I couldent do anythink accept Ctrl+Alt +Del and log out and back in so I lost the message.....
What Is Dr Watson and how do i get rid of it? The down loads had only just been ruuning for a few miutes and they were from the Pain Killer web site I realy dont think they would put a virus in a free demo game would they?Ive downloaded heaps of demos in the past not from this site though.
Funny thing is I Have PC Cillion Anti Virus and i have no warning from it, this was like a XP message.
Since I loged out and back in everythink seems to be running ok...so far.
I looked in my program list and in add and remove programs in control panel and their is no programs refering to Dr WAtson (My wife sometimes Downloads and installes stuff when im at work and I have to get rid of it when it causes problems later ..like search tool bars ect...lol
All help apprieciated.
