Thanks for the tip, now I'll have to wear my Aluminum Foil Deflector Beanie;-)
The phone jammers use a strong signal so nobody will get a call during the movie (no annoying bells), but every spectator's brain (and body) will get cooked by the microwave effect of the jammer and the mobile phones not switched off...
And of course this system won't jam the sponsored mobiles phones we see on the screen when the good Characters get called by the Evil ones.
Sounds like your windows is behaving normally, making all your executables biodegradable, and having you aware it needs some baby sitting to keep going;-)

The phone jammers use a strong signal so nobody will get a call during the movie (no annoying bells), but every spectator's brain (and body) will get cooked by the microwave effect of the jammer and the mobile phones not switched off...
