    I got a new laptop 3 days ago, and there is this icon in the taskbar, that I have no idea what it is. there is no descipion, doesnt do anything when I click it. Its just there to be enoying, can anyone tell me what it is, and what process do I have to kill to get it out?
    [​IMG]also I have a problem when I do the 3d flip, FF2 starts shaking, but still works, there is no other way to explain it, it just skakes up and down.

    Download and install Toolbarcop (may need to be run in SP2 Compatibility Mode)

    That will show and allow you to delete your startup registry entries among other things.

    cannot see clear enough but it looks like a warning that ur windows defender needs an update scan

    the shaking can be causing from ur video driver and/or screen refresh - nvidia is working hard to update its "vista" driver so u just have to be patient using the one from vista at the moment

    cheers ...
