Hi all,
I've had drivesentry on my vista running laptop, (2 years) and it is always prompting me whether I trust a file or not. Usually I have no idea what the file is, and say no, as it can take ages to google it up, and I can carry on.
However, since yesterday, there is a file arccon.ac from arcsoft which is constantly causing drivesentry to pop up. No matter how many times I say no, it pops up again. I've googled it and it is doesn't seem important.
If I uninstalled drivesentry, would this be a problem? I've recently installed Nortons 360, as my friend could install it on 3 different computers.
I don't want to do anything that will make the laptop unstable, but I am just getting fed up of the prompts. It wouldn't be so bad if drivesentry actually gave some information about the file it's referring to. The error message is 'this program has changed recently. Do you still trust it?'.
How do you know whether you do or not? Is there some difinitive site that you can check? Every site that I've landed on when googling files has wanted me to 'scan my system' for harmful files, which I won't do, as I'm sure they end up putting a few on. Any advice for a long time computer user who still doesn't understand what to do about registries and that sort of thing?

Just uninstall it
This can be done by closing down DS (Right click the icon near your clock, and select shutdown), then go to your start menu=>all programs=>drivesentry folder=>uninstall drivesentry..and follow the instructions on screen.0 -
Arc soft supplies software might have their Photo Studio on machine ..
Remove the program if you dont use it or find it hard work .
