- [ stuff about startup problems deleted ]
-
- I've been fiddling around with this problem for a while. All three
- machines I work with were 'infected' one day or another.
- The problem appears to be related to the automatic startup of any
- kind of application thru any method (startupfolder, automatic restart).
-
- I can only offer a simple, maybe unacceptable for some people, advice:
- set RESTARTOBJECTS to STARTUPFOLDERSONLY in config.sys and keep your
- startupfolder empty.
- I've never had any problems anymore since having configured all three machines
- in that way.
-
- It would be interesting to hear from s.b. who had startup problems (or
- still has) despite using this configuration...
