Windows XP SP3 32bit, 2gb RAM and NVidia 9600GT Graphics card. Q6600 processor (dual boot machine I use with Win 7 and XP, I use fences on both but the problem is only on my XP OS at the moment).
When I start my computer with XP, the C: drive goes crazy, constant drive access slowing down everything else. I used Sysinternals process monitor to track this problem down to Stardock Fences Pro. Fences pro is constantly writing to "C:\Documents and Settings\Bucko\Application Data\Stardock\Fences\TroubleshootingLog\fences_debug_info.txt". This file is now 56 Megabytes big on my computer and seems to be full of garbage. Here's an extract:-

Going to try reinstalling Fences but wondered if anyone at Stardock might have an idea what could be causing this? If I was a novice user I wouldn't have realised that Fences was the problem and would have been tearing my hair out. The last thing you need is for users to start claiming Fences slows their PC's down.
Oh, my fences version is Fences Pro V 1.00.4263
