I recently went to go and clean up my start up by stopping uneeded programs at startup (messenger and such) and noticed that in my startup there were several selections that were not names but squares. The locations were all the same and there are four of them. The location
is "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Windows:Load" and substitute :Run instead of load for the second two. There were two of each command totalling four. I disabled them and rebooted and was greeted with four error messages saying that the square program couldn't be loaded. Anybody that has any idea what this may be or how to get rid of it please let me know.
