MemberMy Os is windows xp and ever since the guy from comcast reconnected my internet, the system32 window has been opening up on startup, and slowing down my computer.

Participanti’m not sure what this entry is for:
O8 – Extra context menu item: &Anonymization – C:WINDOWSsystem32sys32.htm
it might have something to do with it, but probably doesnt.otherwise i cant really see anything in the log that would cause an explorer window to pop up, have you checked your startup folders?

yea there was nothing in the startup folders, and that anonymization is just a toolbar button.

Participantwhat about the administrator account? check the “all users” folder too… most new installations try putting something in there

MemberWhy don’t you switch to Unix? Windows is only good for graphics and games… if u want to have a computer experience without dumb errors get on Unix and buy another pc if u wanna game and keep it away from all the bs on the net.. cuz windows security is a joke…

Memberoh ok… well I hope u take the right precautions because it has more security holes than any other os…

MemberSubstream, stop insulting Windows. We are all well aware of its problems, and don’t need you running around repeating it randomly in different topics. Besides, its not all horrible and dangerous like you make it look. All someone needs is Anti-Spyware, Anti-Virus, and a firewall, and they are good to go.

Participantsecurity isnt always the ultimate do-all and end-all priority on a machine. as i pointed out to eedok in another thread, what’s the point of having a perfectly secure system if you cant run any programs on it? most mainstream programs today are written specifically for windows, or even for macs. there are very few programs that will work on linux, and i think that’s more important to the average user than security. yes we want to have a secure box, but there are limits.
