baypond Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 I am told that it will be a 'scheduled' program running something like a computer scan. It will usually be a program that has an icon sitting in the bottom RHS of your START bar.Have you downloaded any new or updated software recently ?

Russethouse Posted September 2, 2009 Author Share Posted September 2, 2009 The penny may have dropped ! I wonder if it could be the Retrospect Express HD, which is set to back up at 6pm - IF I remember to switch it on [8-)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
