Well since this re-install of my OS (XP Home) and the addition of SP2, I
have been visited A LOT by this Dr. Watson guy and immediately afterwards
the computer locks up and I have to do a HARD reboot...EVERYIME!

I'm familiar with Dr.Watson from the days of Windows 3x but what the heck
does the error box "Dr. Watson Post mortem debugger" mean? What is it for
and how the heck do I turn it off/rid my computer of it? How can I post the
screen shots without getting flamed for taking up server space?
Thanks.

It is probably malware/spyware
