    Can Anyone Please Tell Me About These Programs

    What are the following programs that are active upon startup of the computer.
    Navapw32
    Rundll32
    Nsched32
    Rnaapp
    Are these programs need to be running and would it hurt anything if they were disabled.

    Nsched32 is the Norton scheduler.
    I don't know about Rnaapp.
    I think Rundll32 allows dll's to work properly.
    I think Navapw32 is the Norton AntiVirus Auto-Protect.

    Any Questions?

    Rnaapp has something to do with being connected to the internet. I'm not sure EXACTLY what it is, but i do know that it only is there when i am connected to the internet, and when i use CTRL ALT DEL and shut it down, i lose my internet connection...
    Rundll32 i think has something to do with the powerscheme (sleep mode) thing in windoze

    Rundll32 is associated with your display....chances are you have the display icon in your taskbar for quick access...shut down Rundll and it will also disappear

    Lets see...

    Navapw32: Norton Antivirus

    Rundll32 is a file that many programs use it, makes dll's run as applications. Some driver or vxd file may load it on start-up. Don't worry it is for your own good [img]/forum/smile.gif[/img]

    Nsched32: Norton Scheduler

    Rnaapp: is the Dial-Networking program.

    Correct me if I'm wrong [img]/forum/smile.gif[/img]

    Rundll32.dll is a module that windows uses to load other modules, for they can't be started by themselves.
    This a elimentary windows file, so must not be deleted.

    Bye
