Tech Support Forum - View Single Post - Microsoft "Search Enhancement Pack" window

Dunedin, Sir:
i carefully examined and cross-referenced everything in my start-up list against that website you directed me to; and i unchecked all of my startup items(via utility program "What's Running"), then finally logged-off and rebooted. Upon next startup, that blue & white Microsoft window (less anything in it!) did not appear (at long last)... HOWEVER,
after i went back and re-checked all my validly-examined (and OK'd) startup items and then quit and rebooted again, then BANG: that infernal 'Microsoft' window returned during all subsequent reboots...
i believe the software culprit in question is a PROCESS item that continues to return during rebooting that is NOT connected with anything on my routine start-up list.
i also noticed that many items that checked out on your website as being rated "X" (for take that sucker out because its' a worm, etc.) ended up being re-entered in the process listing during regular bootup -- my prior deletions to the contrary!!!
i really don't know where to go on from here as this unnecessary MS screen continues at startup ad nausem.
