Hello.

I am running Windows XP Prof with IE8.

Every morning, I manually check Windows Update for 'Express' and 'Custom' updates.

This morning (Mon Mat 17/14), when I checked 'Custom' updates, there was an ''Nov 2013 Update For Root Certificate for Windows XP ' KB 931125 update.

I downloaded and installed it but this seemed odd since this update was released 4 months ago.

Why was it offered again for the first time today? No other 'earlier' root certificate updates have been offered.

Thanks!

    PA Bear/Xircal:

    I do not even recall installing this software (I use the built-in XP Defrag) so I was surprised to even see it listed when I checked the 'Program Files' directory the other day.

    On the http://www.pcsgo.com/how-to-uninstall-defraggler-step-by-step-guide-to-remove-unwanted-program-completely/ website, it states that Defraggler is a fake anti-virus program.

    However, on the http://www.piriform.com/defraggler official Piriform website, it states that it is a legitimate piece of software similar to XP's built-in Defragmenter.

    I opened the Defraggler that I have and it looks like Defragmenter. I clicked 'About' and it states Piriform Defraggler 2.14 so I assume that it is a legitimate piece of software.

    I am thoroughly confused though-Are 'Piriform Defraggler' and 'Defraggler' two different programs with simila-sound names?

    Is the Pirform Defraller 2.14 that I have a 'regular' piece of software like Defragmenter and the other 'Defraggler is a 'fake' malware program that can wreck havoc?

    You lost me-What is the diff between running manually vs automatically?

    I 'ran' the Fix-it tool, chose 'Detect Problems and Apply Fixes For me-Recommended,' it asked if I was having issues with installing/uninstalling, I chose uninstalling, it brought up a list of programs, including 'Not Listed' so I chose that then it asked for a Product Code and to press 'Next'-I could not get beyond that without a Product Code.

    I 'ran' it again and this time chose 'Detect Problems and Let Me Select The Fixes To Apply,' it asked if I was having issues with installing/uninstalling, I chose uninstalling, it brought up a list of programs, including 'Not Listed' so I chose that again then it asked for a Product Code and to press 'Next'-I could not get beyond that again without a Product Code.

    Is there anything you can click when you see the question about a Product Code? Any choices at all you can make? Is there a field where you can type something in?

    Maybe try right click Defraggler, go to Properties and then check the available tabs for mention of a "Product code".
