Hi Ken,

It depends: Check under Folder Options that you don't have restore opened
folders upon boot and go to Start/Run/Regedit and navigate to this key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

Change the key that reads:

C:\Windows\System32\Userinit.exe,C:\Windows\System32\Userinit.exe
To:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe,

This problem can be caused by the DlDer Trojan. More information here:

Hi Kelly,

I look at your suggestions and they were all set correctly, the link for the
Trojan does not work also I did a search for the D1Der on the Symantec web
site and did not find a thing.
