I'm baaaacckkkk...with another question about error messages:

NotifyAlert.exe.....Application Error
application failed to initialize properly....OXc0000135

rng.exe....Application Error
application failed to initialize properly...OXc0000135

everything appears to be working fine and all scans--including ones I use as a different tester--are fine.

NO...I didn't touch anything/change anything ;D

Cojo, this happens more than once?
Did you boot after the error and try again?

I'm not sure, and could be completely wrong, but I think some Windows service does not start when it should do. Maybe the RPC (Remote Procedure Call) service. Again, I'm not sure but if the error does not appear again, let's not worry too much.  ;)

cojo,

If rebooting as Technical recommended did not fix the problem, then I would do a Diskscan and Defrag.  You have had some nasty problems over the last few weeks, and things may have gotten scrambled inside the memory.  Also, you may have developed a boot sector problem which diskscan usually can fix.

Let me know.

I cannot found 'NotifyAlert.exe' or 'rng.exe' in my system.
Do you know anything about these applications?

No, Technical, I don't...
I will do the scan disk and defrag as techie suggested and see if that resolves the problem.

It's weird to me that everything was all right, then this started...without me messing around! ???

i'm very happy you succeed but anybody can tell why a defragmentation and scan disk could correct such this error?

Ogw, I also changed the names of the folders by placing XXX in front of them and this has stopped it...

Og,  
It was not only the diskscan and defrag that jCojo needed, but renaming the files as well.  The files notifyalert and mg are used by Dell for some of it's advanced internal features that are not used for regular operation.   Renaming the files prevented the attempted execution which had failed for some reason in Cojo's computer.

I recommend running a Diskscan to check a hard drive for errors which the Diskscan function can repair in most cases, especially in the boot sector which can cause a variety of troubles.  A Defrag normally should be run every month or if you add/remove/change or delete a lot of files or programs regularly.  It helps put things in the best position for system access and improves speed.  Believe it or not, a computer can "loose" where things are......thus a defrag.

Hope this answers your question

and the MR. Techie is not necessary.  Techie is fine.
Glad to have you on the forum.

Cojo, if you could not delete the files, why don't you use the 'Move on Boot' application that I have already suggested for you? You will find the link for downloading it at my 'links' page, you know...  ;)

 :-[

to be honest...I never thought of deleting them because I was afraid it would mess something up! with the XXXs, at least they would be there if I did end up needing them.

obviously, I was not thinking clearly...
