Would crash my computer (blue screen) on startup when my computer was infected. Don't know if it had any direct connection to anything.

NVcpl (dll) is a safe program. its just the Nvidia control pannel. the nub that says its a virus doesnt know better =P
  Josh P  

Agreed. Completely harmless, but if it is labeled as a executable (.exe) then get rid of it by any means possible! nvcpl.dll is only used by NVIDIA and will NOT send any info!

This is the essential driver for nvidia FX series cards but the bundled class, called DesktopContext Class, sometimes crashes Win XP (SP2) when you right click anywhere on the screen (or sometimes when you try to copy/paste files from one folder to another). The screen freezes and computer hangs for a few hours. Best solution is to download ShellExView (see the link) and disable DesktopContext Class. This error is not commonly reported but it happens in some Acer laptops.
