You could have used Glarysoft's very own Security Process Explorer to find it...  ;)

So they have a program running continually to check for updates and they put an icon for it on your task bar that does nothing other than take up space?  How irritating.

So it puts the icon in the task bar to show it's there. Then apparently it pops up another one to show it's doing the check.

Actually it's quite useful; it runs continually to let you know a program is running continually, and to warn you that it can't tell you what the program is.  ;)

edit: Ah well, I guess it's not that funny; now if only I could figure out how to switch it off and prevent it starting; I'll have to poke around and see what can be figured out.

Hi holt,

I will suggest you install winpatrol It is one of my MUST_HAVE.

It will give you list of "startup Programs" and you can easily disable which you do not want, like "Glarysoft updater" here.

Regards,

Anand
