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.

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.
