start.exe missing????
Why do you say: I've tried everything and searched everywhere!
If this is true, then there is no solution and you are wasting our time. Then again, maybe you have tried a lot of things but not everything and you should tell **exactly** what you tried and the what the results were. There is no sense in us providing recommendations of things that you have tried. I do not believe start.exe is a valid file--it sounds like something that might have been caused by a virus infection. Did your PC have an infection? Do you get an error notice for every program you try to start saying that start.exe is missing and it is needed to start applications? -- Regards Ron Badour, MS MVP for W98 Tips: http://home.satx.rr.com/badour Knowledge Base Info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?pr=kbinfo "Kris" wrote in message ...

start.exe missing????
You asked this in win98.gen_discussion yesterday and I replied last night. Please
check your posts for replies, instead of posting over again in multiple groups. My original reply: You may have a hijacker program named Secret-Crush: http://www.pestpatrol.com/pestinfo/s/secret-crush.asp Follow the manual removal instructions to determine if it is your problem. Also, see he http://www.kephyr.com/spywarescanner...sh/index.phtml It would help if you let us know what you have done so far, to get rid of the DOS window. Also, take a look in the Windows\Command folder, as there should be a valid file named Start.exe there (though you do not need it to run executable files). Post back with what you have done, and found, and what your results are. -- Glen Ventura, MS MVP W95/98 Systems http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm "Kris" wrote in message ... Where did my start.exe go???
