Bear with me here. *I have a program Faber Toys installed. *One of the many detailed items it describes is "Active X, True or False". * There is one dll that is always True in all runnng programs, *remote procedure call dll or rpcrt4.dll. *

Then I found in my Win32User32 Core component something called WinOldAppHackoMatic. *I did a find file search and could not locate it anywhere.

Questions:
1) Should these setings be at true?

2) Is the WinOldAppHackoMatic a normal Windows98SE entry?

3) Could Faber Toys, for those familiar with it, give one a heads up as to security issues within the PC?

Just a question, more an idle thought - are Faber anything to do with Mattel? *If my memory hasn't collapsed under the weight of vodka-marinaded brain cells, weren't Mattel caught doing naughty things against people's privacy some while ago? *I could be wrong, and no slander or libel or anything else intended here.

LOL, Checkout. *Not sure exactly what you were asking but this particular program, Faber Toys, is written by a Fabio Vescavelli. *www.faberbox.com

I know the hula hoop while spinning around one's waist would garner all imbedded measurements and call home so Wham-O could fully understand the size of individual most like to hula. *

I believe Mattel was stopped cold when Ken and Barbie were caught red handed mailing the home office demographic info about each household. * *

Wasn't Ken jailed for Injection Moulding? *:)
