Re: Windows Process - USERENV

Thanks - I'll give this a try.

Also - I added a empty "autoexec.bat" file to the root of c: and the
errors/log entries stopped..

Hi,
What you are looking for is the userenv.log log file located in the
%systemroot%\debug\usermode folder. By default though,
this log file is disabled. To enable it, you need to modify registry
settings to add the UserenvDebugLevel value to the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\ Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
registry key.

You need to remove this REG_DWORD setting a value of 0x10002. This
modification kicks in on the fly, and adding entry to the log will be
stopped.

If this option is enabled, a new userenv.log file will be created while
the
existing one is saved as userenv.bak once it reach 1 MB. Userenv.log will
keep growing in excess of 1MB during the user session.

Backup the registry before performing the recommended steps.

Use Registry Editor to navigate to:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

Remove the Data Name: "UserEnvDebugLevel", Data Type: REG_DWORD, Data
Value:
10002 (Hex)

Also, install a spyware removal utility. I suspect that there is some
spyware in your machine.
