error message on startup

[eniale]

I get the following error message upon starting my
computer:

Windows cannot find 'copy'.

Then it says to try searching for the file. Problem is,
I'm not trying to copy anything, nor do I remember trying
to do so in the past few weeks, but that's how long I've
been getting this message. I click on "OK" in the box,
and it goes away. Any idea how to stop this message?

The "copy" problem when starting Windows is apparently caused by spyware
- Winshow. Open regedit and find "winshow" and delete any key found.
Repeat search with "winlink". Then search on the hard drive for .dll
files that are winshow.dll and winlink.dll and delete. Reboot. Be
extremely careful in the registry. In fact, you might want to run the
spyware removal tools Spybot Search & Destroy (www.security.kolla.de)
and Ad-aware (www.lavasoftusa.com) first. Be sure to update those
programs before running them. They may look for Winshow now. It is
preferrable to run the removal tools in Safe Mode.
