at random times, for about 15 or so minutes it continuosly crashes Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer, leaving no option but for you to have a backup plan. Download Opera or Firefox and Total Commander so that within those 15 minutes you can still work. Reformat hard-drive, it is dangerous.

My web fun cards / smiley central - it seems to be causing internet explorer to crash, once i removed the whole package from add remove - internet explorer stopped crashing.

Seems useless. Not sure if harmful or not.
