Hi,Jon, my mistake I forgot I had given you the optional fix few posts back.
Post me another HJT log, only reason I brought it up was I could see it in the running processes.

Hi, jon, can you look yourself to see if this exists, as it's still showing in your log.
C:\Program Files\Viewpoint << This folder if so delete

Dan,

Thanks once again for your help. I manually deleted the folder. I went into MSConfig to see if I could disable it on startup. It wasn't there. So, I'm just going to restart and see if its in the HJT log now. After that is cleaned up, should I have the "All Clear"?

-Jon
