When I turn on my pc, evrything loads up ok, but the last
thing to happen is a window opens up that has C:\Windows
in it. I noticed that when it first opens there is a MSDos
thing on my taskbar for a short while.
I can close the window and carry on ok, but it is annoying.
What can I do to stop it?
I have checked in Startup and that seems ok.
