Barb,
You need to post back in one of the same threads as you posted in
originally. It makes it too hard for anyone to find your posts otherwise.
Don't delete the line within the desktop.ini file, delete the whole
desktop.ini file.
The only desktop.ini file(s) that you would want to delete are any that
contain these lines:
[.ShellClassInfo]
LocalizedResourceName=@%SystemRoot%\system32\shell32.dll,-21787
However, you shouldn't have any desktop.ini files in any temp folders, so
those would be OK to delete, no matter what the desktop.ini files have in
them.
This temp folder, C:\WINDOWS\Temp ??
Or this one, C:\Documents and Settings\Your Name Here\Local Settings\Temp ??

Thanks for your help earlier with the desktop [.shelclassinfo]
localizedresource name=systemroot\system32\shell32.dll -21787, however, I
followed your directions - used Method 1 and 2 with msconfig. But still
having the same problems and this file pops up at startup. Tried saving
some settings but they don't save after turning the computer off and then
back on.
The desktop.ini file did not appear in the files named but I did find them
using Search in the Temp files. Should I delte those?
Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Barb

To W. Vogel - I have followed your directions and tried to clear this
line as you have previously instructed using both methods -
[.shelclassinfo localized resource name=systemroot%\system32\shel32.dll
-21787 - but on startup, the window Desktop Notepad still pops up with
this line. I still cannot save any settings.
In Method 1, I deleted the desktop.ini files containing that line in the
following --
drive:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
• drive:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs
• drive:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu
When doing a search for the desktop.ini file, these files no longer come
up.
I also unchecked "Hide extensions for known file types" and "Hide
protected operating system." But when I shut down the computer and turn
it back on, these are checked again.
I tried the 2nd method with msconfig - There was one Adobe file with
Common Startup and I deleted that. That remains deleted.
I also cleaned out the Temp files that contain this line, but when I shut
down the computer and start up again and do another search, the same files
are contaminated again.
The virus - W95/CTX - has obviously found a way to get around fixing this
problem. The usual method is not working.
What else do you suggest?? There must be another way.
Thanks,
Barbara
