I think...I want it removed. It freaks me out...but what is it??

I have no treetrunking Idea.

you found it as a file on your computer? was it related to another program?

maybe it has something to do with a media graphic of a cat sliced onto a calculator which tells time.

uh, i don't know i don't understan comp. logo that much.

lol. I'd forgotten I even posted this.

I found it by searching for "dxp" in the Find Files or Folders thingie under the start menu. Just goes to show what weird stuff you can find, if you're looking.

I'd be interested to hear what dxpnet has to say about this...maybe he can de-code it.

i think there's more than just this site that uses dxp, so that's probably what is going on.

i'd be careful about just deleted stuff like this from your computer

"weird",

"Hmmm",

and "Okay". 🙂

hmmm. the ? being who else. or what else.

do doo do doo
