Everytime i start up Windows, an error message pops-up as reads, "Windows cannot find..." followed by several Chinese or oriental symbols, (I really don't know! ). This happens like 5 times before it goes away. PLS HELP!

I have run Ad-Aware several times and there are like 3 items that cannot be deleted. It asks me if i want to reboot my comp. and let Ad-Aware take care of them, but no matter what, they still keep on coming back.

Click on Start->Run and type MSCONFIG

Look in the startup tab for things that maybe shouldn't be there.
