Peter, Your message below is the one I used to download the Autoruns so we
are talking about the same program. I have Norton Internet Security,
Firewall and Anti-Virus. Norton kept sending risk notices. I decided I
might have to uninstall it and was searching for how that would be done in
case I can't get the two to work together. I do appreciate knowing that all
I have to do is delete the program files. I will keep trying to solve the
Norton problem before I delete it, but if I have to I know how. Thank you.

I had the same thing happen to me some time back. This is caused by a
program or dll missing from the system32 directory. It might even be missing
elsewhere, but relies on a dll in system32 to run. You need to check what is
in the registry that is run at bootup. The best way without messing with the
registry is to use the freeware called AUTORUNS from SysInternals. Get it
at: http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/autoruns.shtml

Good luck.

AutoRuns is a program by Mark Russinovich at SysInternals.com. I looked, but
did not find a copy of it on the FreePCTech site. Are we talking about the
same program? If it is the AutoRuns that I recommended, then there is no
uninstall required. All you need to do is delete the program files and that
it is gone. If only other programs were written that way.
I don't understand why you would be having problems with AutoRuns and
Norton. I am running Norton System Works on my computer and have never had
any problems reported with AutoRuns. Please clarify what program you
actually installed and where you downloaded it from.
Peter
