External information from Paul Collins:

"Tablet" is not required to run at start up. Loads the tablet drivers for the Wacom Graphics Tablet. This can be unchecked in msconfig without problems if you don't need the tablet functional all the time. Create your own shortcut if you need to run it ad hoc. If you forget to run it before running Paint Shop Pro & Adobe Photo Shop) you may find the following: (1) Paint Shop Pro (version 7.04) - (a) Browse function will NOT work (program freezes) (b) On program exit, PSP does not terminate (you have to CTRL+ALT+DEL to close it) (2) Photo Shop (version 6.01) - (a) Program functions slowdown (d) On program exit it takes noticeably longer to shut down (like 30-45 seconds)

Important: Some malware camouflages itself as Tablet.exe, particularly when located in the c:\windows or c:\windows\system32 folder. Therefore, you should check the Tablet.exe process on your PC to see if it is a threat. We recommend Security Task Manager for verifying your computer's security.
