That's looking good.
Feel free to Killbox this folder as well if you like:
C:\Program Files\Diner Dash
How's the machine running now?
Note: You have an outdated version of Sun Java on your machine. It's very important to keep Sun java updated. Go to Add/remove Programs and uninstall J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 3. Reboot and download the latest version (update 6) from here: https://www.java.com0 -

Not as slow as before, no pop-ups, everything seems to be doing what it should!
Thank you so much for all of your help Alfonso and pchelpman, you've been very helpful x0 -
