    Recently while surfing my machine has locked up requiring a cold boot. At times after booting it doesn't run right and Process Explorer shows Dr. Watson still active and another boot is required. Now that I think about it maybe Jetico is blocking it.
    Regardless, do most of you have Dr. Watson enabled or disabled?

    Disabled, I do not need logs, which I can not read and error reporting does not need it. [​IMG]

    Dr. Watson was the stupid assistent of Sherlock Holmes, so I disabled it.
    I admit it wasn't a very scientific reason, but remember, I'm an average user and that's a good excuse.

    Thanks - I also disabled it. Does this program run in the background? I haven't seen it as a process in Process Explorer.
