error message

[Martin Waddell]

On opening my users account I am greeted with the following message Windows
cannot find C:\Windows\system32\geede.exe. There have been variants of this
message with the geede being replaced with vtsqr and ssqrp. It appears to
be a problem associated with viruses W32. Trats and Trojan.Vundo. Nortons
keeps finding these viruses and blocking them and then removing them. I
have run Nortons many times and run Spybot and more recently tried Advance
Windows Care and yet this irritating start up message appears. I have
diasabled System Restore before each scan.
Any thoughts on how I can deal with this matter will be appreciated

Martin, go to Start>Run type: msconfig click Ok and select
Startup. Look for a
entry with geede in it. If there, uncheck click Apply, Ok, Restart.
You will get a message saying you messed with msconfig. check the box on
the left
to stop message.
