You are welcome.

Winpatrol is a first rate program, I do recommend it most of the time, once someone is clean, but you do have Spybots teatimer running, which works like Winpartol,
and I think having the 2 running would be over kill, as they do sort of the same job, you could always try it and see which you like, but before you install winpatrol
disable teatimer.



To close Tea timer and to disable it from starting with Windows when you restart,
open Spybot S & D, open the Tools menu on the right pane and click on Resident and uncheck Resident "Tea timer"(Protection of over-all system settings) active.
Exit the program and restart the system.
