622522 2007-12-18 22:18:00 Hi All,

I have an interesting problem - when I am deleting items from my start menu - all programs, they are reappearing. I have not checked to see if it is on the next logon, or reboot.

I am also getting my recycle bin icon showing as having files in it but if I open the recycle bin, there is nothing in there. When I click on empty the recycle bin it asks if I want to permanently delete 28 items. I will click yes, and then the next day the same will occur - even the same number of files.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Cheers,
Mike.

Whatever that program was that protected files from being deleted or something

System protect or something like that.

Thanks anyway!

622525 2007-12-19 01:41:00 Sounds like a corrupt registry setting or malware present? I cleaned up my mate's desktop settings where he could not change the wall paper. Malware or spyware was present... kahawai chaser (3545)
622526 2007-12-19 02:00:00 How are you deleting the menu items? Directly from the menu or by going into your profile and accessing the "Start Menu" folder? You may wish to check the profile "all users" start menu folder as well. Jen (38)
