View Full Version : System Configuration Utility - Startup question
Any opinions on what I should do with this blank line?
Let it run or turn it off? :unsure:

To be honest I hate using the windows config . start . Better third party ones but think its just Java update loading . Please don't take my word for it tho ! :unsure:
Please back away from the keyboard ! :D Try something like Ccleaner , Reg Supreme where you can just tick or untick a box to disable start up, don't delete it willy nilly . :D
Ok can I edit tonite ?

Peat I agree. Go into control panel. Select java. Change the update setting to not check.

Um, no peat, I think he means the empty line not the highlighted one.
Skizo:
jusched is the java update utility and its safe turn that off.
A blank line entry is not good.
Consider this: would a legitimate process have an entry there that is hidden in such a manner? No.
I think it's from a fake spyware killer app...
My son's computer had one (bloody 'infected file' ballon was popping up in the systray) a few weeks ago that Hijackthis curiously didn't notice. Spybot's system startup util dod see it though, but I couldn't remove it using that part of the program for some reason.
I can't remember exactly how I fixed it but I usually run Xoftxpy, Spybot, Adaware and then HJT to finish off and one of those fixed it.

Yeah, I've tried running Ad-Aware and NAV but neither pick it up. I'll have to run HiJackThis and see what it turns up.

I don't trust NAV.
Go to http://www.kaspersky.com and get scanned online.

I don't trust NAV.
Hasn't failed me in 5-6 years. :cool:

I too have dropped Norton.
I'm using NOD32 now and I prefer it.

Well if truth be told I switched to F-Secure from Symantec for the obvious reasons . Never have got a virus but the Trojans were a killer . ;)

Good to know you got rid of Symantec Peat. I was holding that against you. But now I can let that go. Whew! :)
I too like VB use NOD32. But after my legit (yes really) license expires in a couple weeks. I got it free from CHIP, the computer mag. Then I might go KAV resident, have it on demand now. Also might try AOL's FREE rebranded KAV lite (AOL Active Virus Shield). Both KAV & AOL's FREE rebranded KAV lite run light. And with scan only new & changed files. A KAV scan takes 7 minutes for my HDD.
Hasn't failed me in 5-6 years. :cool:

B/c I've never had a problem with viruses on my PC's....ever.
I think that's quite a feat considering how much I download and many it blocks.
