A new problem appeared suddenly from nowhere at a restart.

"Sonic Activation Module" tries to update from a disk but Dell don't give disks with their pc's it appears?
I Googled it and followed to the letter all suggestions from the entire thread here to try to get rid of it without success.

It is part of Roxios record now program. I uninstalled the program and all references to either sonic and Roxio from the pc, including any references in the registry. But its still there. Very annoying as it trakes about 12 clicks to get rid of it. Any clues on this one??? Thanks!
