Script Message in Notepad on Startup
Hi everyone, I noticed someone else posted a simular message with no replies and I have the same thing going on out of nowhere. I have a Sony PCV-RZ36G desktop. There is more to this message but I thought I would start with the main section.
Help! Thanks Dave

It might help us if you explain exactly what is going on. Are you saying this script is running at startup?? Your post is kind of vague.

Script Detail
The script does only pop up when system is booted on no matter which user logs on (2 total in household). It does not appear any other time except at startup. I have XP home edition with automatic updates in case this is needed. Does this help?

Use msconfig and go to the startup tab and look in the command line column for an entry that points to server.vbs, untick the box next to it and hit OK, reboot see if the script still runs.
