Windows 98SE
The following has been added to my Autoexec.bat approx 1 week ago by
someone, and the checkbox has been checked. I did NOT do this, and I'm
wondering WHAT it means and WHO could have gained access to do it.

--Jesse

Set tvdumpflags=8

Hoping PCP is still around to help me. He's pretty sharp when he is not
smoking that stuff ; )).

Set Tvdumpflags=? was put in Autoexec.bat by an update to Zone Alarm.
Try here if you need more detail:

Haggis answered the question. Keep the "Set tvdumpflags=8" you've got. If any more show up, you may delete the extras.

It would take SEVENTEEN exposures to WinXP to turn me into a PCP!
I've only been exposed thrice!

Thanks or Good Luck,
There may be humor in this post, and,
Naturally, you will not sue,
should things get worse after this,
