When I'm starting up the computer I get the following
message --> "Windows cannot open this file:
File: TFTP3876 To open this file Windows needs know what
program created it. Windows can go online to look it up
automatically, or you can manually select from a list of
programs on your computer"

Any help with this would be appreciated.

Thanks.

You'll find a good method for stopping startup programs. You need to find
the program in the list and un-tick it.

Best of luck,
Frankie

Sounds like one of the files created by the blaster worm.
