Hi,
In the course of troublshooting IE7 Beta 2 issues; I happened upon a very
strange startup item.
in the sysconfig utility under startup there is an item just identified by a
little rectangle.
in the command line;the same-a little rectangle(like a checkbox;but a little
smaller and wider.
No description-nothing zip!! The location is
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Run.
Can't find it anywhere-even to isolate it. It's a non-typical geometric;not
on my keyboard.
This is a brand new install of XP Pro upto date. Even with that WGA
nonsense. Any help?
Found it. Anyone know what ShowLomControl is? or what it does???

Jeff
