c:\ie.reg

[Wec]

Each time I start up my PC, this msg appears "Cannot
import c:\ie.reg: Error opening the file. There may be a
disk or file system error."
I'm guessing that something's been edited in the registry.
Anyone have a quick fix/solution?
Thank you.

Check with msconfig http://www2.whidbey.com/djdenham/Msconfig.htm which
services and processes are on startup. Try to disable services and reboot.
Possibly you can find out what is going wrong with a program.

Hi again
I have looked at the services list but it's very long. It
would take much too long to go through them all and check
each one individually. Is there anything else you could
propose?
Thank you

It looks that you have some Adware on your system.

Hi

My original link
http://groups.google.com/groups?q=ie.reg+group:microsoft.*
works fine for me...

Interesting. This link does here a google search for "ie.reg
group:microsoft" (without quotation marks) and will not find any hints on my
system. Only a search with "ie.reg group:*microsoft*" works here.

Hi

I would think this is an OE link resolving issue, when I click on
it from Mozilla newsreader it uses "microsoft.*" and I got a lot
of results.

If you copy/paste the line including the ".*" to the address line
in IE, does it work ok for you then (it does for me)?

Yes, it works. Now i see it. OE cuts off the link and does not include the
".*" to the link. Is this a reason to change to another Newsreder? ;-)
