    Every once in a while there is a performance manager program with an Icon that finds it's way next to my start tab. I've searched and found two topics, one- this is a virus and two it is a program running with Samsung's Magic Doctor which I'm pretty sure I do not have installed on my "old" NC20.
    Anyone have same situation?

    MSconfig may reveal if Samsung's Magic Doctor is loading at startup and Task Manager should show what is running. You can try killing programs / processes in Task Manager and see if the icon disappears.
