I recommend updating your A/V software and doing a scan.

Small rectangles are Windows's standard way of displaying characters for which it doesn't have the right font/character set. Usually shows up when trying to display asian/cyrilic characters...

Thanks,there are 4 of these in msconfig, I unchecked all 4 and don't notice anything different.
I wasn't having any problems with computer, just noticed these on the startup list and wondered what they were. I have the Microsoft firewall "on" and I have spyware blaster,avg free edition, cws shredder,reg scrub xp,spyware guard and hijack this. |
