That is weird, maybe you have some sort of malware? I'm not sure why that would happen.

The browser should be in Crogram FilesEclipse Communityr3dfox

Hi wither 3:

I wouldn't be surprised to learn this was caused by some remnant of your 360 Chrome browser (developed by the Chinese company Qihoo) that was never cleaned off your system properly - recall my 14-May-2024 reply to you in locoeng's What browser do you use?. You've mentioned seeing odd Chinese-language pop-up dialog boxs before, and perhaps there's some orphaned 360 Chrome registry entry or task that complains if you try to install another browser or change your default browser.

Per K4sum1's post # 9, I believe the excutable in Crogram FilesEclipse Communityr3dfox is named r3dfox.exe.

Thanks K4sum1 and Imacri- The file isn't there. The only r3dfox files I could find are r3dfox.exe.xxxx.dmp. The xxxx are two different series of numbers. The .dmp files are blank when opened with bluescreenview. I also don't understand why they would be .dmp files. If I shorten the names of the first .dmp file in either series to r3dfox.exe and try to run it, it says the program is not compatible and to find out whether you need x32 or x64 and then go to the software developer.

In the r3dfox folder, there is a folder called Removed Files. The only thing in there is "Chrome.manifest."

I agree with Imacri that this is being caused by the Safe....................... program associated with 360Chrome. I suspect I should have uninstalled it before I uninstalled 360Chrome. Not ready to reinstall 360 Chrome to find out.
