I may be stating the obvious but have you tried; Start; Run; type msconfig
then click start up tab to have a good look at what gets started and how on boot-up?

Frank,
Actually i had not done msconfig until you just mentioned it, but it does not have
"my documents" listed there. That would be too easy right! hehe. Thanks for the tip
though! I now know how to check it in the future. Any other ideas why this might
be happening?

I'm running Windows ME and the My Documents folder was opening at startup. In another
forum, I read that the DlDer.exe infection sometimes created a fake EXPLORER.EXE
file. I had noticed in running msconfig that there was an EXPLORER.EXE file in the
startup tab. I disabled it and the problem was solved. So, go to Start>Run>type msconfig
in the box>OK. Click on the Startup Tab. Scroll down to see if you have an EXPLORER.EXE
file in your list. If so, simply uncheck the box in front of it. Click apply and
the OK. Restart your computer.
