Here are several startups not listed on your website. Please advise.
E_FATI9EA.EXE
Palo Alto Software PAS8_U~1.EXE
1 (Yes, this is correct. It is listed as the number 1 all by itself with no .exe or anything else attached to it. I hope it is not a virus.)

We need a little more information.
Is that first one coming up as an Epson Stylus Driver or something else? Does it show up in add/remove programs?
Do you have Business Plan Pro installed on your system?

I do have an Epson printer, so maybe it is a driver that does automatic checking of updates. I just wanted to make sure it wasn't a virus. The E_FATI9EA.EXE does not show up on my Windows XP Add/Remove program list, but there are several programs that begin with the name Epson. I may be checking this in the wrong way though, because everything listed has a familiar name and I don't see any obscure file like listings like I do on the Startup list. Is this the way it should be?
On the second item, yes, I do have Business Plan Pro. Maybe that too is an automatic updater?
How about that last item? A number 1 all by itself looks scary to me.
