My computer started opening up the "MY COMPUTER" window upon Windows
Startup.

I looked in the STARTUP Folder - nothing was there as usual.

I am guessing that there is some sort of REGISTRY KEY that is telling
Wondows to open up the MY COMPUTER window during startup.

My mouse goes fromt he center of my screen up to the MY COMPUTER Icon and
opens it up? Any suggestions??

This just happened today after I installed a program.

Any advise appreciated. Please reply to all in this group and
(e-mail address removed) if you don;t mind.

Thanks....

Go to Kelly's site, click on M and scroll down to My Computer opens on boot:

No virus, trojan, etc...all AV and Spyware programs are fully updated.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks..Chris
 
I followed the instructions for the MY FOLDER - opens on boot....nothing was
there about MY Computer opens on boot. I looked at the same registry keys,
and nothing seemed obvious there.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks...
