I think I may have an issue with this cws.msconfig.

Whenever I login to skype which is a pc2pc calling program its pretty good actually. I look into my msconfig and its shown there in the startup list. But under options in skype i choose it not to start up when i go into windows. In options its always turned off but whenever i load up skype in my msconfig its always there.

But then when i run cwsredder and do a scan it finds it and and removes it. Then when i load up skype and look at msconfig the skype is still loaded on my start up list. So like usual i have to de-select it and click ok and choose to restart at a later time. But then when run cwsredder the cws.msconfig is still there but removed once again.

How do i fully get rid of this?

Looks like I think I may have making a mistake. I didnt check one site and found this "The tool sometimes falsely identifies a selective MSCONFIG start-up configuration as "CWS.msconfig".
Removing it has no ill effect that I've been able to find. Of course, a real CWS MSCONFIG is a threat!"

Not an issue with msconfig you agreed to it:

Oh so now Skype is forcing people to have it start up. LOL ohhhhhhhhhh those stupid people at Skype LOL

I wonder if someone will hack it so it doesnt allow you to have it start up automatically.

BTW I think the reason why the cws.msconfig rolls up is cause of that article you just mentioned.
