I've got a wierd problem. Every time I boot my system, an MS-DOS prompt will pop up and try to import a file called moo.reg into the Reg Editor. The problem is, that file doesn't exist, so it gives an error. What is moo.reg and how can I get rid of this annoying boot-up sequence???
 
Yeah, sounds like a case of virus attack. I fidget around with my registry and found a call for explorer32 to be the culprit.

The branch it's found in is as follows:-
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

In my case it was a binary value with the name
"Windows Explore Update Build 1143" "explore32.exe

Hope this helps.
