SYMPTOMS
When you install Microsoft Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) under Windows NT 3.5, 3.51 and 4.0, the following objects are added to Performance Monitor:

  ICMP IP  Network Interface TCP UDP

When you remove SNMP, the objects added to Performance Monitor during installation are not removed, and continue to be available.



CAUSE
This behavior is by design. The objects are not removed in order to preserve the integrity of the performance monitor counters.

Additional query words: counter prodnt perfmon.exe
