WJVIEW Error

Recently when I boot, and after XP loads, I end up with
an error window in the center of the screen that
reads: "WJView Error: Could not execute Main: The system
cannot find the file specified." If I click OK it goes
away until the next time I boot and doesn't seem to cause
any problems, but it's annoying. Can anyone tell me what
this means and how to fix it. Thanks.

This is a residual of the removal of some spyware. Go to start | run.
Type in msconfig, hit ok. On the startup tab uncheck the line that has
an enrty for wjview. Click ok. Reboot. When the system reboots put a
check mark in the box to not have it notify you again.

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
