This is mostly about Free fixer.
Right now I'm checking it out. If it should be helpful in the way I need I will most diffidently buy it. I just tried it and you are just great with providing the info in helping to make a decisions. I'll keep trying our program, however at this point think it's more than worth the price. I'm not sure if it did anything with the esrv.exe. I didn't see any about it. At this point time will tell.
