Calculating time remaining - a waste of time

This 'Calculating Time remaining' is a complete waste of time and desktop
space. If it was ever in XP I never noticed it. I assume that this is why
copying/cutting from one place to another seems to take 5 times as long in
Vista
Get rid of it!

RE: Calculating time remaining - a waste of time

Couldn't agree more. Complete waste of time.

RE: Calculating time remaining - a waste of time

This same thing happened to me. I called tech support. He said this was a
virus that caused this problem because if you reboot in safe-mode and try to
move-delete-add a file it doesn't do it. So I would recommend trying to get
rid of the virus (name unknown) or as I did completely re-install Vista.
Mine works good as new and fast now. Good luck!
