Hi,

Im running Windows XP with the latest updates and patches.
Recently I ran a program called Spybot to get rid of all
the spyware popping up on my PC. After this happened
everytime I start up my PC the windows explorer pops up
and displays my system32 folder...twice.
I have uninstall the spybot and ran a virus checker to no
avail it keeps happening.

Does anyone have a remedy to stop this opening up..apart
from this everything is working fine.

Thanks
