Follow Microsoft's instructions to kill the Find Fast Indexer. It interferes badly 
with system performance and maintenance. Note: Do NOT renable it, it's usless and 
uses lots of resources.

Kill Find Fast

Plus, remove OSA from startup and get rid of PTSnoop. Open MSN Messenger, go to Tools 
- Options - Preferences tab. Uncheck "Run this program when Windows starts" and "Allow 
this program to run in the background."

PTSnoop Quote:

"Ptsnoop.exe is a program installed with some modems that monitors the COM ports 
for the modem driver. It's not actually necessary for using your modem. To stop the 
error message, you can open C:\WINDOWS\WIN.INI with a text editor such as Notepad 
or Word Pad.

Locate and delete the reference to Ptsnoop in either the LOAD= or RUN= lines at the 
top of the file, and save the file. (Leave the LOAD= and RUN= references.) 

Check the Windows Registry by selecting Start*Run, typing RegEdit, and pressing Enter. 
Navigate to HKEY_ LOCAL_ MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\ Windows\CurrentVersion\Run. 
If you see a reference to Ptsnoop in the right window, simply highlight that reference 
and press Del, then close the Registry. Restart Windows and you're done." 

Or, it can be Ptsnoop backdoor Trojan:
