I obtained a registry fix that has cured this. I still have a problem at boot-up though. Every time I start/restart my computer a particular folder is opened on the desktop every time. How can I stop this?	supersi (8401)

713562	2008-10-21 07:14:00	MalwareBytes picked up a whole heap of trojans. I scanned the USB drive too, but nothing showed up there. I've just restarted the PC and no more annoying window popup!	supersi (8401)
713563	2008-10-21 07:38:00	Do a scan with trojan remover as well It should if theres anything there, reset everything back to normal (select all options under utilities)	Speedy Gonzales (78)
