Repeated F-Secure failure after startup
I'm using F-Secure 16.0 Common Component Framework 2.44 build 135, which lately presents the following warning box shortly after my operating system loads:
The frequency of this warning box's appearance is increasing, even as the tedium of repeatedly having to re-start my local machine becomes less tolerable. What information do you require in order to investigate this matter; and how do I gather it? Thank you for your attention and help!

Thank you, Laksh, for your timely response! Regarding the 20-months-ago thread which I'd forgotten about: Yes, I followed your advice back then by uninstalling SpywareBlaster Version 5.2 and the problem went away.
However, it's back! On this particular system startup the Dreaded Box didn't appear, but when next it does I'll do that uninstall-reinstall procedure. If it returns subsequent to that procedure, I'll post about it in this thread.

Laksh, that Dreaded Box appeared again yesterday; so I did the whole uninstall-reinstall procedure (linked by you in my "old" thread on this subject). Much to my consternation, the Dreaded Box showed up again today!
So, in lieu of a fix, here's what I'm going to do: nothing. I'm just going to ignore the Dreaded Box, because restarting my local machine when I'm in the middle of something is a big pain in the ass. I turn off the machine three or four times every day anyway, so that'll have to do until such time as the problem is fixed.
