Editing startup files

[Guest]

I've just deleted some adware that altered my startup files... now when I
boot up, I get a message from 'rundll' saying that the adware program isn't
found. How can I edit the startup file back to it's original way so it
dosen't try and boot up the crap-ware? Please help!

Use MSCONFIG and look under the STARTUP tab to see where the crapware is
trying to load - go to that location (probably the RUN registry key) and
remove the entry.

Disable it in Msconfig.
(Start-Run-MSCONFIG-Startup tab)
