Re: Msconfig problem

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

Back again, Malke.

I printed the pages from your web site and ran the whole process in safe
mode. Nothing showed up. I ran it from my thumb drive which was an
interesting experience. To answer Ricks post, I deleted all instances of
*msconfig* which was not a problem. I noticed that I ended up with instances
of Msconfig.exe with numbers and letters (35E4DAE9.pf ) in the
Windows\prefetch folder, the results of trying to open the exe, which showed
up when I first found the problem and again after replacing the exe file
from the emergency files on Doug Knox's web site. If I understand what I"m
reading the virus that does in the msconfig file also does in the program
manager and regedit. They are working fine.

Since this behavior is usually indicative of virus infection, what is
the malware/virus status of the machine? If you think it is clean, what
programs (and versions) did you use to determine this?

Be sure the machine is clean:
