Oke let's see...
Do you have an ATI graphics Card or a Motherboard of ATI or with an ATI
chipset if so than ATI is for that...
Resume Copy is new for me / but i think that you can uncheck that on. Don't
delete it but uncheck it first and see if nothing happens with the system
Machine Debug Manager - Just a debugging program for windows to debug some
problems if the occur i think...
Hpfsched - the name says it all Hewlett Packard Scheduler is needed for the
printer is a printing scheduler...
Qtstub.exe also new for me... / Just uncheck it and see what's happen...
Oke... and finally.. CYDOOR please please Please uncheck and delete this one
from you harddisk... I had the program also ones and deleted it very
quikly... It's a kind of BackDoor program for hackers.. that's the thing that
i think of it.. and is not needed for windows...
Personally if you have a internet connection.. download at www.zonelabs.com /
Zone Alarm it's free and a good and easy to use Firewall... Atguard is also a
good firewall but there you have to pay for.. my motto is if it's free and
good you must have it...
