Hi all,
ive stopped some programs using msconfig on my windows visa machine but now
every time i boot up i keep getting annoying popups from windows defender
telling me i have blocked programs, i know they are block because i blocked
them, how do i stop the ballon messages coming up in the bottom right hand
corner of the screen?

Any help would be muh appreciated.

Thanks heaps

This is msconfig trying to open because of the changes you made. Just
right-click on the Defender icon in the system tray, run the blocked
program, and you'll get the msconfig window open.

msconfig, after rebooting opens a window to inform you that changes have
been made. That is the program that is blocked.

You only need to let it run, by the way I described and then check "Don't
show this message or launch the System Configuration Utility when Windows
starts" and click OK.
