    JOE.G:

    The next time you have the occasion post a text log, please just post the content of the file in the forum or the specific potion of that log you are interested in rather than attaching a file that requires downloading and/or opening a file.

    Thank you.

    Is this is the entry you are talking about???

    Code:
    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!

    Running on a Windows 9x system??? If so it is probably a good thing. If you delete that entry on a Windows 9x system you could be in serious trouble. Please read my comments about a similar entry on a Windows 9x system in this thread:

    I really didn't what to see another log. I stated:

    Particularly a log in its entirety without segregating the specific entry that you were concerned with in response to my questions.

    Since you didn't reply to any of the questions I asked, I assume that you understand the nature of the entry, understand the comments associated with startup entry and are just going to leave the entry alone.

    If not, I sorry but I will not respond to any other queries in this thread. You have another thread asking about startup entries:

    Rather than confuse issues or responses please continue any concerns or questions you have concerning startup entries to that thread.

    Getting an answer is one thing, learning is another.

    When I right click on it the arrow starts flashing and moving all around.
    I have to diffrent threads for 2 diffrent operating systems, 1 is 98 SE and the other is XP. This is the 98 SE thread.

    Do not attempt to delete that entry!!!

    Spybot will not do it and don't do it manually because you will regret it.

    Joe, it's kind of important, if you think about it : ).

    I remember if you "kill" explorer.exe it'll render you unable to boot the desktop.

    If you try/attempt to remove the entry, I doubt you'll be able to boot your OS again.
