When I have Startup Organizer on the following box keeps coming up. The box is titled "Startup Organizer" and the message in it is "The following application was loaded to a startup category, C:\WINDOWS\system32\jrrrjb.exe.
Do I want to unload it?
If I say YES, the box reappears in a couple of minutes. If I say NO, no further reloads occur.
What might be going on?
I ran SpyBot R&D and ADAWARE scan and removed everything they found.
I fvound a jrrjb.exe in the run section of thje registry and deleted it. It came back the next time I booted the computer.

Disable system restore before trying the suggestion below.

Unhide all files including system files and delete the errant jrrrjb.exe and other weird (randomly) named exe's within that folder and reboot.

If you are not able to nuke 'em, download MoveOnBoot to facilitate the deletion.

To Sabertooth,
I did as you suggested. Turned RESTORE off, searched for jrrrjb.exe in windows/system32 folder. Hidden files exposed. No luck. Searched entire HDD. No luck.Downloaded Move On and entered file "jrrrjb.exe", got an error message that told me that was an incorrect file name. Went to the 'run' portion of the registry and mention of the file WAS there. Deleted it and watched the registry for awhile. The file loaded again. Deleted it again. And it reloaded again.The name was "ckmlqsysf", changes each time it loads. It is type REG_SZ and the data field is "C:\WINDOWS\system32\jrrrjb.exe (always this same data). I then turned ON restore and rebooted.
Same as before. Any other ideas?
Bill

You have to turn system retsore off and then restart the computer. Turning system restore off and back on without restarting will not clear the files.

I forgot to mention it. I did turn the computer off AFTER I turned RESTORE off.
