Hi


Everytime i boot my computer i have to wait 60 seconds until i am able
to start a programm. I only set my virus scanner in the autostart
group all other autostarts are disabled. my c: is new defragmented
this problem started after killing the worm/lovsan.A

perhaps it has manipulatet my boot settings???

what means the timeout=30 in the boot.ini???

what else could couse this????

please help me

dont worry about the boot.ini file that happens out side of Windows and only
appears if you have a dual boot system. you cant do much of anything to fix
this, antivirus software taken time to load, just make sure that thats the
only thing loading with your system..

Start>>Run>>"msconfig" goto the Startup tab.

Recovery-Settings. Select Edit. Change your Boot timeout
from 30 to 1.
