QUOTE "Then delete Limewire and use a virus removal program. I can almost bet thats your problem."
I found the solution but I didn't touch Limewire as I believed it had nothing to do with it. I took Troy's advice and uninstalled
DVD FAB 4.0.1.2. The "stormjumpers link" he provided in this thread gave complete details whereas a simply using ADD/REMOVE programs may not have gotten rid of all the artifacts like PREFETCH (hidden file). Anywat, about 10 hours later and my program is running again just fine. My guess is that the Puffin Couffin burn engine file was corrupted or conflict and the re-install fixed that.
Many thanks to all who have offered assistance.
