I don't really have a security blanket... unless you count Mr. Pointy.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

the adobe plugin is still there, and when I disable it,

Is this how you disabled it?

Tool-->Options
click Downloads
In the lower right corner, click "Plug-Ins"
Un-check the file-type association.

Yes clicked downloads, Clicked plug ins. Unchecked the "enable" check box in the rightmost column. And it is fine - until it is mysteriously turned on again.

Okay, that means I am starting from the same place. Good. Off to explore....

What do you see in your C:\\Program Files\\Mozilla Firefox\\plugins folder?

This should do it:

Then re-install Foxit, if necessary.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Okay, so I removed some files with Spybot, and started getting the following error message at startup:

Runner Error

Could not load the target dll ("C:\Program Files\BackWeb\BackWeb Client\6.23.66\Porgram\BackWeb.dll", error code 126

I tried restoring the files in question, but I'm still getting the message. It doesn't seem to be doing any harm, but having to click past it every time I turn on the computer is getting old. Any suggestions?

What version of Windows are you running? Are you familiar with msconfig?

All is well that ends in pizza.

Windows XP, and no.

Daniel--yeah, in retrospect I suspect it's the program that was running my HP updates. So I figured putting it back would help, but... apparently something's still missing, and I have no idea where to go looking for it (and little desire to start randomly installing things that might be it). I'm kind of hoping I'm just missing something in Spybot, but it really looks like I've restored everything thta has to do with Backweb.

If it's part of something that's supposed to be there, then I don't know. Sorry.
