Woops, didn't look down far enough. I see the answer to my problem.

I like the idea, but I can't seem to get it to work. When it starts up, it asks to agree to the licensing agreement and then reports that it can't find speedfan.exe. Seems like everyone else can do this. What am I doing wrong?

Yikes! The speedfan widget has been downloaded almost 200,000 times and I have never heard a single report of it turning up as a virus! I might suggest switching to a more well known virus scanner such as Norton, McAfee, Kaspersky, or AVG.

Speedread.exe is a simple program written in C that reads from Speedfan's shared memory API. Unfortunately, the API is not open source, and you need the permission of Alfredo Milani Comparetti in order to use it, so I cannot go into great de…tail of which particular shared memory locations I am reading. However, the program is completely innocuous, and if your virus scanner is reporting every application that accesses shared memory, you must be swamped in "viruses". More

Very nice, works great showing both CPU's and all monitored fans. Well done, keep up the good works.

Make it a great day!

Avira AntiVir is reporting that speedread.exe contains a Trojan. I'm assuming this is a false positive for now, but can anyone else confirm? AVG did not identify a virus in speedread.exe so...

Also JozerWorx, can you give a brief explanation of how speedread.exe does what it does? It would make me feel a little better to know what it's doing, based on the Trojan report.
