In trying to keep Win XP running as long as possible I've used various software programs including Rocketdock, which I think is brilliant. It runs very smoothly and I have it set to run at startup. Normally there is no problem, but every so often I find it missing after starting up. I start up Rocketdock manually and when I go to check the Rocketdock settings I find the 'run at startup' box is unchecked. I correct this and it will run correctly at startup for the next few times. Then, for no apparent reason, it is missing from startup again.

I cannot figure out what is happening. Anyone got any ideas?

What security software do you have on your computer (list all of them) and have you scanned recently? If so, what was found?

I use Kaspersky security suite, which apart from running scans also does a total scan weekly. It has always stopped any problems and I haven't had to deal with a virus etc since starting to use it some years ago. I also use Soluto to try to impove startup times, but I have never removed Rocketdock from startup with Soluto.

sometime ,but only sometimes ,a restart is in order when you make a settings change ,so set it to boot at start up,shutdown and reboot windows right away .not saying it will work but doesn't cost anything to try it

Thanks, I'll try that. In any case it will work for a while. So I'll report back next week!

Thanks. Will do.

malwarebytes is a great program to have and use on a regular basics

I ran Mbam and it found 8 apparently minor problems which I have deleted. See log below. While I was running Mbam Rocketdock crashed and I had to reopen on restart.

I thought your problem was caused by being infected and I was right. It just goes to show that Kaspersky is nowhere near as good as they like you to think it is.

It says "No Action Taken" next to each entry. You need to re-run Mbam and get it to remove all it finds.

Sorry, I did do that, but sent the wrong log. Think this may be the right one:

Cool! I recon your problem with rocketdock will be cured now.

Seeing as you are a rocketdock fan, check out rainmeter - http://rainmeter.net/RainCMS/

Doesn't seem to be cured. Missing from start-up again this morning. I'm wondering if I have some sort of incompatible program running. As I told you Rocketdock crashed while I was running Mbam. I did keep the crash log report, but it means little to me. I recently had trouble with system crashes caused by my video drivers, but I thought I had solved that by updating the drivers. Perhaps there is some residual problem? The trouble with trying to keep an old system running, snags do occur from time to time. It might perhaps be the Logitech Quickcam, which I try to stop running at startup.

Might be worth checking the condition of your hard drive. The free version of hdd regenerator 2011 will scan your hard drive and fix a limited number of errors if you have any. - http://www.dposoft.net/

I had some difficulty running HDD regenerator due to continued running of some unknown programs. I used msconfig sys to check, but couldn't identify any. So in the finish I ran CHKDSK which found no bad sectors, but did clean up some minor inconsistencies. So far things are running smoothly, so it may well have helped, thanks.

try to scan your pc online scan i suggest trendmico housecall...

Tried Housecall - no threats. Also downloaded Hijackthis 2.04 and attach log. No idea if there is anything to worry about, but to my untutored eye seems OK.Can't quite see why Google Chrome is repeated so many times.

You seem to have a lot of incomplete registry entries in that log. Could you download Ccleaner and run the registry cleaner several times until it finds no more problems. You wont need to save a backup of what it deletes.

Ccleaner can be found here - http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner

Once done, re-run HIJackThis and post a fresh log as an attachment!

I usually use easycleaner, but must admit I was quite taken with ccleaner. I've run it on registry a few times and last 2 times it was clear. I also managed to delete some of my saved passwords, but no matter. The last time I opened rocketdock did not open at start-up. But I will keep trying and hope it starts behaving itself!

Here's the Hijackthis log:

Hmm, it's looking like your registry has become corrupted. I am at work at the mo but when I have gotten home and have some spare time, I will post some instructions on what to do next!

I'm not surprised, it's been running a long time, although I have run easycleaner from time to time. Thanks a lot for all your effort. I'd like to keep this thing running a bit longer if I can. Really need a new computer - saving up.

Run HJT again then place a tick in the box next to each of the following entries (if found).

Once all are ticked, click the "Fix Checked" button then re-run HJT and post it's latest log.

Thanks very much for your help. I'm going to keep a note of that list and make the changes at a later stage bit by bit, once I've removed Soluto and ConduitEngine. I'm a bit concerned about avp.exe as I think this may affect Kaspersky Security suite. Skype also I'll leave for the timebeing, although I use it rarely. Anyway You've given me a lot of assistance and I think we should call it solved for now. If anything else unexpected happens I'll post a new thread. Can't wait to start from scratch on a new system!

All those entries are incomplete and therefore not working.

You could always do a registry backup beforehand. To do this, click start then run and type regedit in the box and press enter.
