Found via twitter.

Many thanks for this. One more useless process bites the dust.

Great tip. But I’m running Vista and my control panel doesn’t look anything like the one displayed (for dealing with Office 2007). It’s not obvious how this would work with Vista.

Thank you for demystifying the system program ctfmon.exe. Previously, I had no idea what it was. Many thanks!

THANKS!!! I haven’t restarted yet, but hopefully this does exactly what it should. Thanks for the info, I’ve always wondered what the heck it was…. I came to the site via Lifehacker’s recent article about SmartArt. Keep up the good work, I’m sure your servers are getting slammed.
