Startup Entry
This is a valid entry, but is classified as 'user's choice'.
It may not be needed, but that depends on whether the user deems it necessary.

| Name: | Tgcmd |
| Filename: | tgcmd.exe |
| Description: | This part ensures the software is installed correctly (similar to an installation wizard) as reported by Cox Regarded as spyware by some as it has the ability to retrieve user information. Whether it does so depends upon the provider. "tgcmdprovidersbc" is for SBC Yahoo DSL. One Toshiba user reports problems with hibernate on his laptop if disabled - hence the "U" recommendation |

This is a Startup entry, not a running process - although it may be visible in Task Manager (CTRL+ALT+DEL) if it continues running after startup. Before ending a process via CTRL+ALT+DEL just because it is listed as an "X", please check whether it's actually set to start using MSCONFIG or another tool.
Some bad startup entries use the same names as common Windows processes, and it may be difficult to distinguish between them in Task Manager. If in doubt, seek advice before doing anything.
