Anyone know what the program 'GDWH' is?

I am having problems with this program hanging up whenever I try and play Winamp Radio. Whatever it is freezes basically everything on my computer. Anyone know how to disable it from starting or turn it off or something? I searched google and it showed other people with Dell's having the same problem but I couldn't figure out how to disable it...

I checked that out and tried to find where the file was at but I had no luck. Is there a diffrent name for it other than GDWH?

I Have the ANSWER you are looking for

 

 

First off if you are using mcafee, then the reason your locking up could be your Mcafee software you are probably using

there is a Mcafee Privacy Center that needs to be disabled before you turn on winamp, or any other program that is locking up.  once you disable the privacy center, you should be okay to go

 

i had this same problem but i was lucky enough to notice that my Mcafee software had just been updated when the winamp program locked up, then i searched the net and discovered that GDWH was a dell security program, so i disabled each mcafee center one by one and discovered that when the privacy center was disabled the problem was gone,

Note you can still keep your firewall, virus protection and spam killer enabled, you only need to disable your privacy center

so there you have it try that and if it works post a verification for other users
