A brilliant little program called 'Autoruns' lists each event/action in order through the start up procedure. I was surprised at quite how many dll's were started but disabled them one at a time and got a clean boot when I disabled crypt32.dll.
Thanks for your help and suggestions.

Bob, before you give up try Bitdefender.com and run their free antivirus. I have used their paid version for years and subsequently used the free antivirus scan on various computers.  Hope this helps!

  Thanks for your response, I have done several spyware scans without any result. I have noticed that everything loads normally whether I press 'yes' or 'no'? It's just so frustrating that I don't know what it is referring to, as the 'title' panel is blank.
