I'm sitting here at my company's accounting PC , installed with Win95C, for some reason everytime someone starts up the computer, after win95 gets loaded, the C:\Program Files\Cybermedia folder window opens up , I Cant find it in startup, system.ini, win.ini, \windows\current version\run or \runonce(registry), just cant figure out why its poping up, and She(my CEO's wife) would really like that taken care of. <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href= </a><br>Experienced in , or have messed with : VC++, Borland C++ Builder, VJ++6(starting),VB-Dos, VB1 thru VB6, Delphi 3 pro, Borland C++ 3(DOS), Borland C++ 4.5, HTML, ASP(somewhat), QBasic(least i didnt start with COBOL)
 
well, the way that I get rid of things starting at startup is (but this is in win98):<br><br>go START&gt;Program Files&gt;Acessories&gt;System Tools&gt;System Information.<br><br>when the window pops up, go tools&gt;System Configuration Utility<br><br>another window should pop up. click on the tab labeled startup, and there is a list of thing which you can check, or uncheck that run at startup. But be verry verry carefull, you might just turn off the startbar or something like that! <p>theEclipse<br><a href=mailto:eclipse_web@hotmail.com>eclipse_web@hotmail.com</a><br><a href=robacarp.webjump.com>robacarp.webjump.com</a><br>**-Trying to build a documentation of a Javascript DOM, crossbrowser, of course.

I fixed the problem by uninstalling Cybermedia OilChange and uninstaller since we dont need them anymore, also your information was extremely useful, I never knew about that thing, despite the fact I knew about everything else hehe. <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href= </a><br>Experienced in , or have messed with : VC++, Borland C++ Builder, VJ++6(starting),VB-Dos, VB1 thru VB6, Delphi 3 pro, Borland C++ 3(DOS), Borland C++ 4.5, HTML, ASP(somewhat), QBasic(least i didnt start with COBOL)
