TSGL: Sgortcut icon on desktop

[H Davis]

Ed.

Since LauncherOP.exe doesn't seem to be the actual program, can you look 
in Task Manager and try to determine what the executable is? Maybe if 
you start a scan you can see the cpu usage on a process and identify it 
that way.

It may be that LauncherOP.exe just starts some other program as its name 
implies. Why it won't start that other program under some circumstances 
I don't know but it wouldn't be the strangest thing I've seen Windows do.
