found a program that closes all non-essential programs from running prior to installing new software. Thought it might be usefull before gameplay. Called Enditall and can be found at http://www.pcnineoneone.com/downloads/system.html (http://www.pcnineoneone.com/downloads/system.html)

I think he means because the web site is trying to install some active X control.  I just saw the link he put to the screenshot.

Hmm I kinda had to trust MS (at least a little) but why is that site using ActiveX components ?

And yes, I might be little schitsophrenic when its about my PC.
I've been using these things several years now, downloaded all kind of crap but never a virus or a trojan (yet  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)).
