Why are there additional user accounts on my Windows XP machine? Well, it depends. Several applications actually do create additional user accounts when set up. Unfortunately there are several worms and viruses that will also set up user accounts to make your machine accessible to hackers. Without knowing specifically what accounts have been created, it's impossible to say which is which. My wireless card generates a "can't load procnics9x.dll error" - how do I fix it? This is apparently a configuration problem with certain LinkSys wireless cards on Windows 9x. Broadband Reports has a discussion thread on the topic that has a couple of solutions. My virus scanner got rid of a virus, but now Windows complains it can't find it on start-up. How to I stop Windows from looking for it? The anti-virus program removed the program, but not the start-up entry. This prior article on what runs at startup can help you identify and remove the offending entry. How do I change my MSN email address? To the best of my knowledge, you can't. The best approach is to open a new account under the new name, and close the old one. How do you connect two routers? It depends entirely on what you're trying to accomplish. For most simple installations ... you don't. Everytime I sign on to AOL I get three XXX windows - how do I make them stop? This is a classic case of spyware (even though it might not be spying). Run a spyware tool such as SpyBot or AdAware and they should clean it up. A few minutes after I connect my network connection properties change, ad a stange phone number appears... This was actually a much longer question, but it boils down to an application attempting to hijack or change your internet connection or dialup icons, typically attempting to get you to call a high-cost toll number. The answer here is also to run a spyware tool such as SpyBot or AdAware and they should clean it up. Cidaemon.exe is slowing my machine down, is there anyway I can shut it off? Certainly. Turn off the content indexing service: right-click on My Computer, select Manage, click on Services, right click on Indexing Service, select Properties, press Stop, change the Startup Type to Manual, and press OK.

Posted by: Erick at August 16, 2005 2:19 PMPeople say that cidaemon.exe is the indexing service but how can that be? isn't cisvc.exe the file that does the indexing? (I checked the services thing to see if Cidaemon.exe is the indexing service, but i saw the other file instead)
Posted by: Tea at June 12, 2007 7:19 PMIt takes a while for my computer to come on. A lot of time goes to opening up unecessary stuff like yahoo messenger. How do I change what comes on at the startup of my computer.
Posted by: NaToya at July 17, 2007 5:33 AMI keep kepping pop-ups from cidaemon. I have it disabled, an have my pop up blocker on, but they still keep coming up.
Posted by: Fred at August 4, 2007 5:13 AMI had probelems with Cidaemon. All the so-called solutions with turning of indexing didn't work. I have removed google Desktop and it seems so far to have been successful.
