I think this is most likely ok but I am posting here to confirm.

We have a new machine just setup and running but I wanted to stop MSMG from running at startup and went into msconfig.
I noticed there was a startup program with a registry location but a blank description!
Using reglite revealed simply 'farstone' I did a google on this and I believe that its something to do with the drive backup system pre-installed on this machine.
But I think making blank entries is bad form!

yes, see if there is a entry for it in C:\program files or c:\Windows? Also check in add/remove and see if it's there?

Sorted out!

What was odd was that the drive backup system is called Recover Pro by a company called Phoenix Technologies.
But after (a lot of ) digging I found this on Farstones website..............

Phoenix Technologies licenses FarStone's RestoreIT and RestoreIT Network technology which are sold under the Phoenix brands Firstware RecoverPro and Firstware Recover Pro Network.
