Re: wtf is noptify.exe!!!!!!! Reply #2 – November 08, 2004, 06:40:13 PM I found the best way to figure this stuff out is to google search the problems name, I have done this MANY times check here it should be able to help you get rid of it, It appears to be distributed via a verizon installation cd which 'secretly' installs it on your comp when your not looking Quote Selected
Re: wtf is noptify.exe!!!!!!! Reply #3 – December 03, 2004, 09:01:29 PM if running win 98 se or higher click start and then run in the box type msconfig. in the startup tab look for the program that is taking up your cpu usage and uncheck the box beside it and then hit apply reboot and then see if it starts up again.

Re: wtf is noptify.exe!!!!!!! Reply #6 – December 04, 2004, 12:36:48 AM msconfig is on XP, i dunno about others. but yeah, you need to run a couple of spyware programs, antivirus, and get a firewall (ZoneAlarm works great). if there's still on there, reformat and reinstall everything, and before you connect to the internet and go ANYWHERE, install the aforementioned programs. my computer starts up pretty fast, WinXP, 2.6GHz, 512MB RAM. my gf has a laptop that should be just a little slower, but takes 10x more time to start up cuz she has all this on it Quote Selected
