    Hi pussinboots,

    Dsb.exe is spyware - you don't want it anywhere near your computer. It must have corrupted. Maybe, if you have run adaware or spybot, or a similar spyware cleaner, t may have removed the folder (C:Program Files\DSB) but might have left the registry key behind. This would result in an error message when the program tries to launch.

    Full removal instructions:

    Hi, I managed to find the program file in the c drive but the other file is definately not in the registry, I did the whole regedit thing on the start menu. Also, my whole computer keeps freezing, god knows why, I found the following things have got through my zonealarm firewall, do you think these are responsible?

    mshta
    220473.EXE
    221827.exe
    268413.exe
    -AUMAGIC
    DigitalSound.exe
    DSB.EXE
    dw15
    E-Hook
    game.exe
    languard.exe
    out.exe
    process-682255
    Save!
    Weather
    xwxload.exe

    The giantantispyware program has detected Save! and deleted it but not the others, also, when I have a file which I need to open with a program, I have a list of programs that I can open it with. I can see that the DSB program listed on zonealarm has an icon with a girl's face, but the programs on the 'open with' list have the same icon. Whats going on? I'm really worried, please help.
