[Hy]

then you can uncheck with start up program not to run once it start up

 

[Rich]

Its not in the list of startup with msconfig and its
not in the startup folder.
It must be a registry setting that is opening
this file.

It's a folder i created to organize this computer

C:\Online, It contains 3 folders: Agent, Eudora and Incredimail.

I just downloaded 2 software programs to check "startup".
Neither one showed that folder or command.
Also from recent advice checked:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

And that command line is not there!!!
One post away from giving up and living with it.

Ok - at least we know it's not spyware. Do you have a wiping utility? If
not try this one: BC Wipe version v.3.05

The wiping utility will be in your right click menu. Just highlight the
folder, right click and select wipe. That should get rid of it.
