Within the "Tools" area, while reviewing "System Startup", I noted the following entry (which I copied from "View Report"):
Located: System.ini, Shell
where: C:\WINDOWS\system.ini...
command: Explorer.exe
file:
size: 0
MD5: D41D8CD98F00B204E9800998ECF8427E
Warning: if the file is actually larger than 0 bytes,
the checksum could not be properly calculated!
ALL of the several "Database Status" descriptions indicate the above as "Not required - Virus - Spyware - Malware or other resource hog". Additionally, although I am able to toggle all other items listed in "System Startup", I cannot toggle (uncheck or otherwise deactivate) this particular item. I regularly check "System Startup" entries. Although this entry (Explorer.exe) is not shown in BOLD, I do believe it is new (within past two weeks). And YES, I am starting to have trouble while on the internet. Any advice, please?
