108260 2002-12-22 08:26:00 I have Norton SystemWorks 2003 Professional edition, part of that package includes Norton Ghost.

I have noticed that a program called Ghoststartservice runs most of the time in the background. I cannot find out what this program is doing, so I am reluctant to disable it in case I cripple something important.

I have searched through Symantec support site and cannot find any useful information.

Does any one here know what this program does?

Thanks in advance

Jen :-)

108261 2002-12-22 08:32:00 Yea, i have that too. I just disabled it. Doesn't seem to effect anything. Though if your using Ghost them i guess it would effect something! roofus (483)
108262 2002-12-22 08:39:00 I have used Ghost to create an image onto CD's, but I didn't think that it needed to run most of the time in the background.

Perhaps it is monitoring something? ?:|
