I noticed two GoogleDesktop.exe processes for my user name in task
manager (Windows XP Home). I went to Desktop's options to see if I
could disable Desktop automatically starting when Windows starts to
see if there were two separate Desktops trying to run simultaneously
on my Windows XP account - Desktop has been acting up lately as well.
I couldn't find the option to choose if Desktop starts automatically.
I also noticed that the URL wasn't clearly a google.com top level
domain, but a numerical IP address instead.
Here's the IP address that's showing up when I try to change Desktop
preferences:
127.0.0.1
I've searched for this IP address at whatismyipaddress.com and
cqcounter.com/whois (another IP address lookup service), but neither
lookup is coming up with any obvious evidence that would point to the
IP address as being a Google IP address!?
Any ideas out there?
