Dear Mr Peterson:<br><br>The FAQ did help somewhat...i figured that it was some 3rd party app, yet i have not downloaded any new programming recently, and it seems that python.exe runs when it wants to, unrelated to a unique program that i use rarely. <br><br>I did receive a new Java update as well as a new version of spybot, which included teatimer, that is all. <br><br>thank you for your input, all the FAQs at different websites merely informed me of what python was, not what programs use it. <br><br>Ryan<br> <p>&#32;
