winlogon.exe file
Tx Rich.
But that isn't what I was trying to get. I was trying to get Aart Jensen to explain to me how to find the entry in msconfig as explained in his email. My feeling is that his thery may be the real problem here--that is: the remnant of a virus is asking for that file upon boot and by deleting this request for that file it should take care of the error message.... Just a speculation on my part.... "Rich Barry" wrote in message ... Go to C:\Windows\System32 Select ToolsFolder OptionsViewAdvanced Settingsclick on Show Hidden files and folders and uncheck Hide protected operating system files. Then look in System32 Folder for DllCache folder. Open and scroll to almost bottom to winlogon.exe Rt click and select copy. Backup to System32Folder and rt click and select Paste.
