Hi John, Underneath a solution by Alex Nichol

Have a good day. Phil

Everytime I log on to my computer I get the wjview error
could not execute main. I know its a java /microsoft
file and thats about it.

The startup is trying to run a Java program that has been deleted -
WJView is the launcher for the Java engine. There seems to be some
trojan around of this sort, and the AV programs remove the Java file
without removing the entry to run the WJView and launch it: hence the
error message. Start - Run - MSConfig and in the Startup page look for
a line for WJView as command and uncheck it

WJview is the interface program of the Microsoft (Java) Virtual machine,
used to run Java programs. This was probably a piece of nasty written
in Java that an AV or anti-spyware program has removed, leaving the
WJView sitting there with nothing to launch.

Start - Run and run MSConfig.exe
Look in the Startup page for a line that has WJView in the Command
column - you may need to drag the divider to its right in the headers so
as to see enough. Uncheck the line, and perhaps also check what was the
Java program, after the wjview.exe on the line.

OK out, don't bother to reboot now, but next time you do there will be a
panel come up about 'you are using the System Configuration tool' -
check the 'don't show again' box and Exit
