Demetri, I'm assuming from what you say that you've searched the entire
registry for the text, so you've covered both HKEY_CURRENT_USER and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, and you still have a disabled program shown in msconfig?

Try searching for text in any files under C:\Windows! (Or wherever your
windows directory is.)

Two ideas: is the offending item a norun= line in win.ini? Do you have
(Disabled) Startup folders anywhere other than \windows\start menu, such as
\windows\profiles or \windows\all users?
