Jun 25, 2005I have this wierd problem of a folder opening with every windows startup. The folder is C:Program Filesone.com.

Oct 14, 2007I have an issue with my new clean install on XP. Every time I boot, C:Program Files keps opening. Here is the stuff I have tried so far. I looked in msconfig, the startup folder and in Startup on my programs list and it doesn't show up in any of these places. It isn't a new program, so it's not because I installed it recently. Here is HiJack This log for reference. I dont have clue what's to look in this. But may be it will help you. Similarly I have copy-pasted contents from autoexec.bat,win.ini and sys.ini for debugging. You may notice that there is TaskMgr link in startup. But its just one of my app I need on startup in my taskbar. It startup as minimized and it has setting "Hide on Minimized" checked in TaskManager. So It remains in taskbar always.

Nov 21, 2006I tried to find the button to shut this off but I can't. The problem is that when I am in explorer and click on any links they open up in firefox. Even in messenger when I click on mail it opens firefox instead of explorer. And so msn takes me to a different page then what it usually does and pisses me off. Also like when I want to do windows update it opens up in firefox so it does not work. I like firefox and use it for almost everything but there is just some thing explorer can do that firefox can't, ie: like update windows. So how do I get it to work like it is suppose to?

Explorer.exe On Startup
Feb 3, 2009As of yesterday I have been having some problems with my computer. At start up I had no icons no task bar and was not able to right click on my desktop I could Ctrl+Alt+Del and run things from taskmanager. I ran spybot and found many trojans and what not on the computer and have since taken those off. Now I am still having the problem when Windows loads I still do not have icons, or a task bar I Ctrl+Alt+Del and end process explorer.exe then start new task and reload explorer.exe and my icons and start bar return. What do I need to do to make it to where my icons and start bar are there when I boot my computer?
