My friend's computer always opens a folder upon startup.  It's a Dell Folder, with media progams that are rarely used, if ever.  These programs do not need to be removed, he just does not want to have this folder open each time the computer turns on.  Also, I have attached a hijack log, and if anyone COULD give it a quick glance and let me know if everything is ok.  Recently, MCAFEE Virus Protection was removed, but I'm not sure if it was done completely, since I see there are a few McAfee things in the log.  

Thanks for any help.If that was removed, what is being used for protection (and not just viruses!)?bumpLook what is in the startup folder in your programs list. And go to start run, type msconfig, look in start up tab for anything that looks like it. And get some virus protection or you'll be stopping on this forum for longer than you bargined for.cfnyy51......  Before I offer what to remove with hijackthis , I would suggest that your friend check and make sure that McAfee is in fact gone ..... I see numberous referances to it ......... These maybe left over bits and pieces in the registry ....... However have your friend check in the programs folder in probably C drive ( McAfee ) and delete the folder manually , then D/L and install a program called ccleaner .........  http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/         once its installed , run the cleaner PORTION and remove anything found............ once that crap is gone ...... Run the "Issues" part of ccleaner and fix anything that come up . That may remove the leftover parts from the registry.

Now then , I see multi toolbar entries ............. ( google ) ......... I would suggest getting rid of those toolbars , as they are usually full of spyware ......( annoying )

Once the above has been done ....repost a new hijackthis logfile and we will suggest what to remove .
