Thanks Scott.
I did not think it really had much to do with your program but thought it was possible you had alert sounds or something that used it.
Anyhow I removed it with the control panel and all is good.
Pinnacle was once installed on this computer. Not now. Fool of a program.
Don't know if any current programs need it but I guess we will see.
While I am posting, I am using version 2 that I downloaded a while ago and registered while it was cheap
I presume updates have been made but see no new version numbers on your site or revision list. Do we need to keep downloading to keep fresh?
Thanks again, Greg
