I have been getting pop ups saying "CTF loaders has encountered a problem and needs to close", then I have the option of sending report to microsoft. I am now getting this like every 10 minutes. I did a "search" on my hard drive for a file with this name, with no results. How do I get rid of this irratation?
Thanks in advance

Read this, particulary the bit about preventing ctfmon from loading.

Just one more thing. Did you know that one of the most useful tools ever devised for use on a computer is called Google. You should try it one day, you will be suprised what it will do.

Don't give away our guru secrets. Some folks think we just have all this stuff at our fingertips.

Yes othehill I know that, but I wondered if he really checked it. I was just making sure.

I didn't mean to offend you. :-(

You didn't offend me. I was just letting you know. And the OP too.

Office power-point viewer 2003 could be the culprit. That is part of MS Office and uses some MS Office components.

Thanks StuartS, I just deleted that program. I did not use it much anyway. I will google first before I bother you guys, but know in a pinch, this site delivers.
