As far as I am aware I do not have IIS installed nor do i run my home system
as a server.
I already have AVG and Ad-ware running and neither of these systems have
picked up any problems with my system.
Is there any way of disabling Inetinfo to see if my theory about this being
the debugger is correct. I cannot see any reason why it loads or runs if i do
not use my system as a server any way.
