Lately when I start up my computer, the system32 folder pops up. Is there a
way to clean up the folder safely? A lot of the folders are empty but I do
not know which ones are safe to get rid of. Any ideas?
 
Visit http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm
and scroll down to Item No. 260 and in the right column
download and run the fix titled "System32 Folder Opens Upon Boot".
