FYI, I removed HP back web agent some weeks ago and never re-installed with no problem. However, reveiwing these replies, I made a search for backweb and encountered the following: BW - A delay application HP Coach - A windows script file that Norton anti-virus did not like when I opened it. Patch - A Ms-Dos batch file. Wonder what is going on here, and does anyone have any ideas? Thanks Geezer
