Intel Directory

I'm running XP with a Pentium 4. Also, I'm running Symantic Systemworks
which includes LiveUpdates. There was a problem with LiveUpdates and I had
to uninstall and reinstall it.

Ever since then, when I boot my computer, the \programs\intel directory is
displayed on my screen. Any idea why and how I can keep it from being
posted automatically?

Thanks,
Mike
 
Hi,

Probably a damaged string in a registry run key. Ccould you please export
and post the contents of these keys in the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

To do this, start/run regedit, expand the branches to each key (do this one
at a time). Click on the key, then on file/export. Give it any name, then
save to the desktop. Once you have saved both keys, close the registry
editor. Right-click one of the saved files on the
desktop, choose edit, it should open in notepad. Click edit/select
all/edit/copy. Open a response to this post and click in the message
text area. Hit ctrl+v to paste the contents. Repeat for the other saved key,
then send the post for examination.

Not likely in this case, though it is possible. Something in the startup
folder is usually just a shortcut (.lnk file) to the program executable.
This "folder opening at boot" problem is usually due to a damaged string in
the registry.
