Has anyone had any experience with a crash on their XP machine after
installing "History Kill" ? I received a "NTLDR" error on attempting to reboot, and was unable to boot my machine until a lengthy repair. While I don't know why the crash occurred, I have decided to not reinstall several programs I previously had running, and "History Kill" is one. I am curious if it caused the crash.

That being said, I would assume that the way they have splattered sites all over the net, in .com, .net, .info, and other domains, that something smells funny about it. Personally I would rather rely on TweakUI and manual history cleaning than something like that product. In fact, as I was googling for it, I started feeling shades of "Evidence Eliminator" sneaking up on me - another program to be avoided at all costs, if reports on Usenet are to be believed.
