Just an annoying squeak. I get a " cannot find
c:\windows\system32\netdc.exe'. " warning when I start. Tried adaware and
spybot nothing found, guess its an orphan looking for its mother. Can anyone
help
 
Hi,

Sounds like something removed a virus or ad/spy program, but not the startup
entry for it. Click start/run, type msconfig and click ok. Look for it under
these keys:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\MSConfig\startupreg

Delete the offending string from the right pane.

Yes i ran anti virus and it found a program to repair but wouldnt do it or it
might be a red herring
 
Done, unticked the box , shut down and rebooted, still there. Any more
suggestions ? Its not a major problem, just annoying. Thanks both of you for
your help.
 
It seems to be quite difficult to get rid of it. A most exhaustive step by
step procedure can be found in:
