PROGRAM & MANUFACTURER
DAMon.exe (Dell)
WHAT IT IS AND WHAT YOU CAN DO
Dell Alert Monitor which is part of the Dell Support software suite.
Recommendation :
?We do not yet know what DAMON does exactly as, at the time of
writing, 3-Aug-2003, getting information on this task from Dell
Support Technicians or their Knowledgebase has been like squeezing
water out of a stone. But we do know two things : it tries to
communicate with specific servers on the Internet, and on some PCs its
very presence can result in startup problems, or programs not opening
up when you try to open them. In-house our view is very clear on this
one : that is the first item we get rid of ! You can try disabling
it with The Ultimate Troubleshooter, but that often does not get rid
of it coming up.?
?The best way to get rid of this task is to de-install "Dell Support"
through the "Add/Remove Programs" in the Control Panel ? you will
still be left with the valuable Dell Solutions Center.?
