The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

system32 folder opens at startup

Asked by michealbeethoven in Windows XP Operating System

Tags: folder, system32, startup, opens

I have a PC that opens the System32 folder at startup.
     Dozens of worms, viruses, and Trojans, and bad registry entries were purged with System Restore disabled
     I checked the registry settings according to Microsoft Knowledge Base article #170086 but there was nothing that needed correction (in fact, there are no entries at all in Current Version/Run).
     I used msconfig to uncheck all startups
     I ran HijackThis! and found nothing unusual (all System32 files were removed as a precaution)
     Searched the registry for an SB Audigy 2 startup key of /L:ENG but was not found
     I ran MS Autoruns but found that to be intimidating because of the couple hundred entries which 99% of them were System32 files
     I used Kellys Korner VBS tweak file but it stated that it could not find the registry keys (whatever they were..)
     Even went to Q_21876386.html and used SmitFraudFix 2.131, no good

Anybody have an idea?
