NotifyAlert.exe? What is that
I got a warning that pops-up out of nowhere. Im not even online or doing anything. On the top it says "NotifyAlert.exe" then it asks something like to debugg or something. So i click debugg and it says, i think "cordbq.exe has terminated" What is this. It has happened twice out of no where

do i really need dell support. So i can just delete it forever. Is it a necessitty?Did it start happening after a recent Spybot SD cleaning? The same happened to me after Spybot SD removed an entry called VX2/f. See link to my post below. I'm trying to figure out if it can be fixed.

It comes out of nowhere for me...Ok good bye dell support!I recently experienced the same problem/symptom on my DELL 8300. It happened after I download an update to Spybot-Search & Destroy. After installing the update, I scan the computer for problems. Spybot identified "VX2 /f" (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Vendor). I of course ran the "fix" and removed this registry entry. After reading many comments on the forum about NotifyAlert.exe, I decided to undo the "fix" using Spybot’s restore feature. That fixed the problem. Good luck to all who have the same problem and I hope this helps...
BoJingle,
I found out that is a known bug for Spybot SD, it incorrectly flags a registry entry for deletion. For now, scan with Spybot and when it detects it, mark it to be Ignored. That should fix the problem until a Spybot update is released.
