Thanks....actually I do not have Norton, guess its time to put it on. I took
it off when I put on XP and set my system up as a RAID 0. Bad move on my
part. I did a check online at the Norton site and it found the following on
my system: W95.Hybris.Plugin , W95.Hybris.worm, Backdoor.Imiserv,
Downloader.MSCache , Trojan dropper and Trojan.Sinkin infecting a total of 7
files....anyway my startup is below. Thanks again!!

Hi Ross,
Ok, the rest of the entries look ok.
1) A question: Do you have any Norton Products installed?
2) Try deleting the updater.exe file from the startup folder (just leave it
in the recycle bin for now, do not permanently delete it).
3) Also, let's expand the search a bit. Start/run msinfo32, expand the
software environment and click on the startup programs. Click edit/select
all/edit/copy, and (same as before) open a new post and use ctrl+v to paste
the contents.

No go.....still comes up to the system 32 window. A quick check of the reg
entry shows that the items did not re appear at least. I'm game for
anything else!

Hi Ross,
Delete these two:
"oqgjffqk"="C:\\WINDOWS\\ucsyvfhi.exe"
"pytbxqor"="C:\\WINDOWS\\System32\\mnqwmpwg.exe"
Then reboot, see what happens. I suspect both may be trojans.

Hi Ross,
System32 Folder Opens When Logging on to Windows
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=170086
However, there are a few other possible causes. Could 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.
