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.

I have no experience with the program, in fact had never heard of it before.
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.

No, not that Dave. Not the other one, either.

Thanks.
I probably will not install History Kill on the XP machine.
