Even if you think you're safe without a firewall, you maybe wrong later on . I wouldnt be surprised Nvidia firewall is screwing up FF. Even if its off /disabled. I think I already have uninstalled it can you help me locate it tell me where to check or what to look for in the registry to make sure its gone	DeSade (984)

I dont have a mobo that uses Nvidia firewall. Get ccleaner (http://www.ccleaner.com) if u haven't got it yet. Delete the Nvidia firewall folder in program files, if its there. And under documents and settings,.. You may have to show all files to see some of these folders. Then run ccleaner, click on issues and click on scan for issues. Whatever comes up remove it. Make sure u dont delete the Nvidia folder for the video drivers, if you use a Nvidia videocard, which by the looks of it u do.	Speedy Gonzales (78)

You could delete the program files, but that won't stop these services from trying to start, and it won't affect the LSPs, all of which will affect your connectivity. If you have uninstalled but have only the LSPs left over you can use LSP-Fix (cexx.org) to remove them.	silvero (11011)

I have stopped all 3 of the services not sure where to find the winsock LSP's you never mentioned those in your first post.	DeSade (984)
479611	2006-08-20 10:48:00	The LSPs are displayed as O10 entries in the Hijackthis log, you could use Hijackthis to remove them but there have been cases where that results in a loss of connectivity, the LSP-Fix program is a better bet . The services will need to have the 'startup type' set to manual or (better) disabled to ensure they don't start by themselves . The main concern about manually uninstalling is a possible loss of connectivity, which would be a hassle . I'd suggest you have a copy of the motherboard/NIC drivers around just in case you need to reinstall the driver, and double-check what your network settings should be . After the services are disabled and the LSPs have been removed, reboot and try hijackthis again, and of course see if your connectivity has improved .	silvero (11011)
479612	2006-08-20 11:18:00	Can I fix this just by running LSP fix or do I need to do that manual thing?	DeSade (984)
479613	2006-08-20 11:34:00	When I referred to 'manual uninstall', I mean disabling services and removing program components like LSP's manually, as opposed to an automatic uninstall like when you use Add/Remove Programs to remove a program . BTW, if there is an Add/Remove Programs entry for this program then I suggest you use it, and then use LSP-Fix to make sure the LSPs have been removed properly . If there is no entry, then I suggest you set the 'startup type' of the relevant services to disable, and then run LSP-Fix to remove the LSPs . After rebooting your computer will still have the program files, but they should be inactive so you can see if things are better as a result . If the problem is resolved, then you can delete the program files and dll's if you want, or just leave them .	silvero (11011)

479615	2006-08-20 11:50:00	Yes, right-click My Computer, select Manage, expand Services and Applications, select Services, go to the right-hand panel, go down the list to each of these services: - ForceWare Intelligent Application Manager (IAM) - Forceware Web Interface (ForcewareWebInterface) - ForceWare user log service (nSvcLog) For each of these, right click the service name, select properties, look on the sheet for Startup Type and use the dropdown to select disabled Then, download and run LSP-Fix, have a read of LSP-Fix.txt (cexx.org) too, move the NVIDIA entries into the remove panel and press finish. That will complete the process.	silvero (11011)
