    msconfig>startup and hijack this logs

    I recenlty installed a program from this website here http://www.yenc32.com/download.php. I didn't think it would come with any spyware or adware, and im still not sure if it was the cause for me to have an extra line on my startup. You can see the picture in the attachment. Can someone tell me if thats supposed to be like that, and what it can be and what I can do to remove. I know it's not supposed to be like that obviosly. Also here is my hijack this log. Can someone please be kind enough to review it and see whats wrong. It is a really big annoyance having something in your startup when its not supposed to be there. Thank you in advance.

    I've seen those before and as far as I know, its just a blank entry. No harm in those. Were you having some sort of problems or just decided to run HJT and msconfig?

    So both of you Zenger and ByteWrangler agree that it is okay for there to be a blank line in your startup??? It wasn't there yesterday and it is now. I don't think it is supposed to be there and I dont want it there.

    If its blank it can't do anything. My opinion is they come from poorly designed software that deletes the information rather than the entry. This in turn leaves a blank entry in your registry that does nothing. If you want to remove it I suggest using regedit and browsing to the key that is listed next to it in msconfig.

    If thats all your going to post or reply, why reply at all. You should know better than that XTC46. OKay XTC46, how can I take it out? Could you be kind enough in telling me how. I know there is a way in going into regedit, but i dont recall the steps.

    Go to Google or Microsoft and type "how to edit registry" and pick your favorite.
