Oh no! Now that's funny! I don't worry about porn sites yet, since my son is only six, but these gam sites could be a problem...He has his own user account on this machine, and I don't know how he ended up on mine...I have a password, now, so hopefully this own't happen again... I have to say, I have had some interesting rehearsals, but yours is the funniest I've heard

I'm mentioning this because it could easily happen to anyone using a computer, who is blind. I had a rehearsal and was bringing up the words to a song when my singer started laughing hysterically. I asked what was going on and she told me. After the computer was running for about five minutes, a picture of a woman's breasts appeared with a link below it that said, "To see more, click here!" I was very embarrassed to say the least. Apparently, my so-called friend had been visiting one of the X rated web sites on my computer and picked up some kind of malware. That is the very last time I will ever let him use my computer. I scanned the system, performing a full scan which takes hours but the malware was removed. The moral of this story is, be careful who you allow to use your computer, especially when you can't see what they're doing.

To fix this There's a few solutions: 1. Start Menu: a. Activate the Start button b. then go to All Programs, c. Then go to Startup. d. Right-click the game in the Startup folder e. Select Delete to remove it from the Startup folder. 2. MSCONFIG Settings: a. Hold the Windows key and press R to open the Run window. b. Type "msconfig" and press "Enter". c. Click the "Startup" tab. d. Uncheck any startup program you don't want to run during startup. e. Click "OK". You can then choose to restart your computer immediately or later. 3. The Program Itself: a. Either you or your youngin' open the program you wish to disable from running at startup. b/ Look for its Options or Preferences. c. Browse through these options for an option to "Run Program at Startup." Disable it.
