Default System folder starts on Boot

Can anyone tell me why my system folder opens up whenever
I turn on my computer? Happens everytime I boot, cold or
warm. It just started doing this and I have Roadrunner
with a Gateway using Windows ME. How do I stop it and why
does it do this? Any help is appreciated. Thanks in
advance.

Have you just installed any new software?- Norton perhaps?

you know why this is happening?

Read the link and find out!

FWIW, with Norton software installed, you're bound to come across a few
problems sooner or later. My best advice would be to find alternatives that
actually work properly with ME.
