Problem with NSClient 1.0.7.0 on non-englishWin2000

[Paulo Pinto]

The tool is called "Extensible Performance Counter List.", and it
belongs to the reskit "Performance Tools".

It's not supposed to cause any type of damage to your machine: in fact,
if you have anything on that machine that depends on the perfcounters,
I'd say that it won't run :->

Take a look at the tool... it's a enable/disable Perfcounter utility.
It won't cause any damage :)

P.S. - My guess is that you have 'PerfProc' disabled ... enable it :)

Hugz all.
