Steve Parry,
Thanks so much for your help. The first site you referred
me to for the Ctsvccda.exe error message, gave me the
steps I needed to take to alleviate the problem.
I'm still having the second issue, noted below, but will
go to the msconfig site you gave and take those steps.
And thanks for the adware site -- terrific!
Judie
2. The second issue is a DOS prompt window that comes up

>>
>> It is labeled C:\WINNT\System32\cmd.exe
>> and the window reads as follows:
>> The requested service has already been started.
>> More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2182.
>> The requested service has already been started.
