Whenever I try to 'run' msconfig, it pops up onscreen for just a second or
two and then disappears. Same thing seems to be happening when we do a
control/alt/delete. Seems to have just started doing this...very annoying.
any suggestions please...thank you.

Sounds like you may have a virus - Kelz.h and Yaha both do this, to
'protect themselves' against discovery and disablement. How up to date
is your virus scanner? Try one of the online scans (e.g. Housecall).
 
Input the "msconfig" command at "Start/All Programs/Accessories/Command
Prompt" instead of the "Start/Run" window and I think you will have more
luck. The Start/Run box has always been more unstable on my system for some
reason.
