Jesse L,

  First, thanks for the quick reply.  Next, I did as you said and there was nothing titled "my computer". 

The following is a list of the startup items listed in the msconfig:

     iTouch   -   "C:\Program Files\Logitech\iTouch\iTouch.exe"   -   (this is a program that runs my wireless mouse and keyboard)

     ccApp   -   "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\ccApp.exe"   -   (this is a part of my Norton security program)

     osCheck   -   "C:\Program Files\Norton Internet Security\osCheck.exe"  -  (this is a part of my norton security program)

     qttask   -   "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\qttask.exe" -atboottime  -  (this is a quick time file)

     ctfmon   -   C:\WINDOWS\system32\ctfmon.exe   -   (?)

     Adobe Gamma Loader   -   (?)

     Adobe Reader Speed Launch   -   "C:\PROGRA~1|Adobe\ACROBA~2.0|Reader\READER~1.EXE   -   (?)

Again per my previous post, I have had this computer for about 7 or so years and this has only stated doing this during the past 4 or 5 months.

Any further help you can give will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Chip Lange
