RE: System 32 folder opens during start up

Dana,

Try auto-runs from Sysinternals.

It has the most comprehensive knowledge of auto-starting locations of
any startup monitor, shows you what programs are configured to run
during system bootup or login, and shows you the entries in the order
Windows processes them.

Subject: System 32 folder opens during start up

I'm drawing a blank...

One of the computers that I maintain is giving me a headache. It's a
personal computer, and every-time it boots up, the system32 directory
folder opens up. I've looked in startup folders for all users, and a few
other things, but cannot find the reason.

Any thoughts to turn this off? I suspect it may be in the registry, but
I'm not definitely sure.

regards,

Dana
