| in case if the above solution does not work, use "Delete Doctor" (a small freeware software). You can select a file to be deleted at system restart. should work without problems. |

| The file is repeating because some other file is replacing it. It is a common feature of a malware. To get out of this problem, first you need to delete this master file. Your browser have been hijacked. Uninstall it completely and reinstall. I hope you are using Comodo firewall or spybot which protect your browser start up entry reg key protected. Run a full system scan after updating your antivirus. Try these for useful tools. Among them use CA Yahoo Antispy and run a scan. Top 7 Tips to Protect Your Computer Keep you PC Clean |

Rep Power: 2 | Hi there "prasanta08", Since file is rebiuld itself than it has to be a mother file installed somwhere. To remove this, first go to the safe mode. Then, disable System Restore. Now, run updated AntiVirus (Still in the safe mode) to make sure there is no malware left in the system. Good Luck |

Rep Power: 2 | Possib'ly a Spyware OR something causing such problem, Trojen is also a threat here. Better you scan in the safe mode first, make sure everything is clean & than install an AntiSpyware (SUPERAntiSpyware, Ad-Aware 2009, Spybot S&D) & scan system for any possible Spywares.

| Reinstall the browser and check. Also disable firewall and try. While reinstalling, please do not retain old customizations. |

Rep Power: 1 | how to keep XP from running check disk on startup after a non-graceful shutdown..... This is a registry modification: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Session Manager REG_MULTI_SZ: BootExecute="" with the autocheck autochk * removed you'll no longer be bothered with check disk. |

| there is a separate, unique case where this problem can occur... If you are dual booting with vista or windows 7, this can occur ! |

| Quite possible. May be your disk is having a bad sector. |
