I get this error on my daughters notebook. Registry Editor : Cannot import\\bmlonn020\ie\internet.reg:Error opening the file. There may be a disk or file system error.
How do I remove this message?

I'd be very suspicious of any program that attempts to edit the registry at startup. I'd run a spyware killer and check the startup tab in msconfig for suspicious entries.

Was the laptop set up for original use at work? It looks like it's part of a login script that is trying to run a file on a server. Try going to start/run and type msconfig. Click on the startup tab and see if any batch files are being run that may call the reg file. If you find the culprit, uncheck the box to not run at system startup.

The startup tab was empty so it didn't work thanks anyway. I wonder if an upgrade of Explorer would solve the problem?
