I was having problems with a pop-up from ArcadeGiant. It came up constantly. I went into Windows Explorer and deleted the program. I realized now that I should have deleted using Uninstall in the control panel because now I get a RunDLL error message popping up several times. It is trying to find AgHelp.dll, which I manually deleted. I don't know what it is trying to load using AgHelp.dll.
