Unexpected Computer Shutdown

OmegaMosh · 10-24-2008, 10:13 PM

I had an unexpected shutdown and got the dreaded blue screen of physical memory dumping. Then after it restarted, windows asked me to search for possible solutions to the crash. Here is a jpg of the malware windows found:

Anyone knows what the problem might be?

Everything I'm finding says this is related to xtrap and some game called Fiesta. If you have Fiesta installed one of the suggestions is to rename the xtrap folder to something else then launch the game which will see that it's not there anymore and install it again (I assume they are thinking that it's corrupted somehow).

Yeah it's a pretty cool bit of software, Stardock do all sorts of nifty little apps!

That one in particular is called Rocket Dock....my dell xps came with its own dock but it was pretty bad. Rocket Dock is the way to go, and very easy to use.
