I did a clean install. The problem seems to have temporarily been solved by
running, at the suggestion of a friend, Reg Cleaner, an excellent program
which shows all program entries in the Registry. I deleted every fragment
from any progams I had uninstalled(and there were many)and, fingers
crossed,hopefully removed the offending remnant. I highly recommend
RegCleaner by Jouni. It can be downloaded at Cnet.
