For some reason whenever I start my computer, after I log in the System 32
window comes on the screen and it says that I have changed something in this
file. I have never been in this window and haven't changed anything before.
This started coming up yesterday, the 27th of Sept. Why has it said I've
changed something and how do I get it back to what it was before? I hope
this is clear to understand. Thanks for your time.

This can be caused by a blank entry, such as can be left behind by
an incomplete program removal, in the
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run and/or
HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run keys. It can also
be caused by an entry in these same keys that starts with a " / ."

Ok - I did this and it worked. Thanks. But now for some reason when I start
up windows the MSN Explorer window comes up. How do I fix that one?
