I was looking at my autoexec.bat file and noticed several lines that I didn't know what they were. Here are the lines:
C:\essolo.com if exist c:\pipost.bat call c:\pipost.bat (this one is listed twice)

Maybe its just a website trying to creep on your computer's browser everytime your'e online.For sure, your computer doesn't need this lines. Perhaps you can delete these lines or if your'e in doubt just put "REM" before the first word of every line to make the computer read them as remarks and not commands.Hope this helps..
