Bob,
It's listed in the registry there because that file was searched for
with START>FIND>FILES. That key holds the values of the most recently
searched for files.
Rename that file to REXCLUDE.OLD. Now run WinDoctor. Do you get any
messages about missing files?
Let me know.

I told WIn Doc to Repair. Reran WIn Doc and all is OK. I restarted my
PC and did not receive the REXCLUDE MSG.
Am I ok now, or is there something else that needs to be done?
Thanks...

Bob,
That should do it.
I'm curious though. Do you remember what WinDoctor fixed?
If not, and you don't mind looking, can you open WinDoctor, and look
at the history to see what WinDoctor changed?

Problem: The shortcut C:\Windows\start menu|programs\start
up\sysdoc32.exe link is invalid.
Reason: C:\Program files\norton utilities\rexclude.reg cannot be
pound. the file might have been moved or deleted.
Fix: Deleted the invalid shorcut.
After Windoc del. the shortcut I went back and renamed the
rexclude.reg from rexclude.old to rexclude.reg. The window no longer
comes up when I power on. Thanks for your help.

Bob,
That is weird.
It appears that the "normal" shortcut that Norton System Doctor
creates to start Norton System Doctor at boot time was re-directed to
start the reg file. This caused the reg file to be imported everytime
you restarted the computer.
I don't know of anything within Norton Utilities that would have
caused this.
I'm glad it's working for you now.
