    have you got the language toolbay thingy still in the bottom right on the taskbar? cause its related to that.

    goto control panel ->regional settings -> languages then click details and make sure there is only the united kingdom thingy

    Yup, its the service that handles the Alternative User Input Text Processor (TIP) and the Microsoft Office Language Bar. It provides text input support for speech recognition, handwriting recognition, keyboard, translation, and other alternative user input technologies.

    I thought it monitored capture the flag tournaments?

    I have it running too, but if its useless I might kill it off...
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    Yup, I went into regional and lagnuage settings from the control panel, onto the languages tab, clicked details, went to the advanced tab (nearly there) and ticked the bottom tickbox "turn off advanced text services."

    CTFMon is no more. I still think it stands for capture the flag though...
