Ctfmon Exe Run On Startup
Dec 26, 2005I don't know exactly what ctfmon.exe does, but I know I hate it. I tell it not to run on startup, it does anyways! What is bringing this annoying process back, and how do I kill it?

Mar 31, 2007I have read that ctfmon is connected to Microsoft Office applications. I do not have any Office apps installed on my PC however, Seemingly from out of nowhere ctfmon.exe has appeared on my startup list and as many times as i have unchecked it from starting, the next time Windows starts and i run mconfig.THERE IS AGAIN.Is this causing any harm? Could it be some kind of virus or spyware or malware? Should I just leave it alone and let it startup with Windows or should I remove it from my system so it cannot return to startup.If I should get rid of it PLEASE TELL ME HOW I CAN REMOVE IT SAFELY. I would prefer to remove it if I can because I don't like the idea of an uneccesary process running in the background on my system.

Nov 8, 2006I have something called "CTFMON.EXE" loading pertaining to Office XP. Its in my system32 sub directory. I don't have Office XP, I have Office 2000. It looks like it has to do with speech recognition, and text. Of course I removed it, but it came back. I read up on it, and it said it would come back. Do I need this? I never had this before, did I get it with the latest updates from Microsoft 2000? I've taken the check mark out, plus I have completely removed it from my start up, but it still comes back.
