Which OS are you running? Is it the main "My Computer" applet that is opening on login? For NT, that is a registry hack that needs to be performed.

Look for an empty key in one of these locations: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion and then either Run, RunOnce, RunOnce, RunOnceEx. This should fix it for you.

If you are running Win 9X, run msconfig from the "start/run" prompt and then the startup tab.

Hopefully one of these will fix you up. Roger
