Frank,
          I have run them in Normal Mode and in Safe Mode and the samething
happens. I have several users defined in Windows, do I have to run this in
each user or by running it iin Safe Mode, does it have the same effect?
          Are there registry entries that need to be removed? I noticed that
the registry items found are in the BOOT registry.
