i can do the same, free here.....
1) Auto-boot up programmes
Go to Run, type msconfig, then go to Start Up tab, then from there
u can see what softwares WILL BE executed upon reaching desktop,
you can turn on/off ALL of them, which includes your AV and
firewall but you may not be able to access internet if you are
using cable cos the .exe is not running.
Go to Run, type regedit, then scroll to
HKey_Local_machine\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\Run
HKey_Local_machine\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\RunServices
u can delete the keys (not reversible) u want so dat the programme
will not autostart next time. Msconfig also loads the info from
this registry path, you can do this if your msconfig.exe is
missing.
Old fashioned
1) Win.ini, the Load or Run section, the top few lins
2) system.ini, look beside the boot section, should have nothing
beside explorer.exe, if have its a virus 100%.
for those who are keen to learn more about PC stuff, Win98/XP, i
can reply to your queries here FOC but no guarantee will everynight
pop in.
