Hi:

It happens to a few Windows XP users: the user is an admin, but could not
manually make new entries under to registry keys below (using regedit.exe):

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce, and
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce

Scanned for virus but it made no difference. Any thought is appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
Polaris
