Wasim Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 delete this: [Adstartup] C:\WINDOWS\System32\automove.exeThen run msconfig and untick anything in the startup tab which is odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

X_david_X Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 OK, these are annoying , Goto your Internet Explorer options either via start>control panel > internet options, delete all cookies and delete files, go to settings and go to view files press Ctrl and A to select all then press delete on the keyboard. Next goto start>run type in %temp% press ctrl + a to select everything and press delete , it is safe. Also if you already havent done this with spyblaster , update it with the latest ref files . In my opinion Adware 6.0 is the best there is , search http://www.google.co.uk for it you can download it , update it and scan.Could you do a print screen of your msconfig startup tab so I can have a look at it ?

X_david_X Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 Here you go..msconfig.gifmsconfig2.gifOk by the looks of things in MSCONFIG you might have a few virus or spyware loading up on startup. Go here search each entry to make sure they are safe. Any that arnt untick them , and restart. That might solve your problem . Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
