[Lowfer] XP question

[Michael Sapp]

JB:  It may be in your system startup tray. I have this utility in the Tools 
section of a program called Spybot that allows me to temporarily disable 
anything in my system startup tray by unchecking the box associated with the 
item in question. Then close Spybot and reboot to see what happens on the 
next startup cycle. If another program needed the gah_newver.exe to start, I 
would expect you would get some type of error message. If you ran that Tools 
utility in Spybot and did not get any error messages, I would just leave it 
disabled and it may not pop up again.  Likely  there are other ways to 
handle the issue with a similar type of process....

Googling gah_newver.exe did not find any adverse information on the 
program....

Spybot worked with XP when I ran that OS
