[QUOTE="acroll, post: 1004455, member: 144904"] [b]Problem solved. Thanks very much for your help.[/b] I checked the folders mentioned by Slydude and, sure enough, there was a netopia/timuktu file in the LaunchAgents folder. I removed it, restarted and, voila, problem gone. Thanks for your help. I feel better now, knowing that someone hadn't made it into my computer. I know I shouldn't have dl'ed pirated software. I was just comparing Timbuktu with LogMeIn. Timbuktu was very complicated while LogMeIn was really simple and the free version does everything I want. I only had Timbuktu for a couple of days before I trashed it. BTW, I DO pay shareware fees for programs I use.
