Chances are high that this is a malware file. Either you uninstalled the malware program or your antivirus/antispyware program did. In any case, a reference was left to the file in Startup. You can remove the reference by managing your Startup. However, since you are still experiencing problems with Windows that is a sign that your computer is heavily infected and/or the system has been damaged by the malware. You can try going through the very thorough scanning steps at the link below. If that cleans your computer and it then works correctly, if any entries pointing to malware files (like the error in your Subject line) remain you can remove them.http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_MalwareManage Startup (Make sure you do the malware scanning first!):(for XP) Start>Run>msconfig [enter]This brings up the System Configuration Utility. Look on the Startup tab and find the probable culprit. Uncheck the box next to its name, Apply and OK out. You don't need to restart immediately, but the next time you do you'll get a dialog saying you've used the Utility. Just tick the box that says in effect, "don't bother me about this again".How to Troubleshoot By Using the Msconfig Utility in Windows XP - http://support.microsoft.com/?id=310560 The free Autoruns program is very useful for managing your Startup - http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/default.mspx MS-MVP - Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic!
