File name: wincool.exe
Program name: Tour
Description: Component of WinME that's annoying as hell. Pop's up a prompt to play the C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Microsoft\INTRO\CONTENT.HTA that plays a full screen version of the WinME product preview Windows Media video file that cannot be stopped to my knowledge until it finishes. That prompt will keep popping up after an install/reinstall of WinME until you give in and watch the thing. It also puts a task scheduler entry to run that annoying thing every 30 minutes, and don't bother deleting that entry, Windows puts it right back. Not only should you disable it from running, you should delete the thing altogether, as it, somehow can re-enable itself. Apparently you can try setting the file to read only
