maybe its a virus or something like that?? I have no such file on my computer and I have Visual C++ 2005 Pro and VC++ 6.0 installed. Is your computer setup to be an e-mail server or web server (mine is NOT)? If not, then move the file someplace else and see if that fixes the problem. If it does, then I'd suggest just deleting it.

Hello,

I have moved this thread, and am assuming that you have a Win 2K or XP computer that this is happening on. My guess is that you have a registry issue.

Not knowing what is causing the problem, if it was my machine, I would backup the data, and re-install the OS and your applications.

Download hijackthis from here: http://tinyurl.com/yslp

Extract the file on your desktop.

Run a scan and look for SPOPSETU.EXE in the list. Check it and click fix checked. See if that resolved the problem.

Also post your hijackthis log here. I honestly think that the SPOPSETU.EXE is a spyware application and you might have more problems than that.
