After downloading a program using a torrent, i intalled the program and i continually got an error message about SysHex.exe. Not sure what it does but am more than sure it was in the torrent i downloaded. The Error message comtinualy popping up on screen was annoying so decided to go research the error message and came across freefixer which i used, following the instructions and so far so good, looks like SysHex.exe has been removed and no more popups
