After installing SP2 on a Dell laptop running XP Professional the My
Documents window opens automatically on booting. Any help on how to get this
to stop is appreciated. Have run out of ineffective ideas - need some
effective ones. Thank you.

SCORE! :-) Although the kellys korner tweak did not fix the problem, I
found a link to Doug Knox's page (http://dougknox.com/) that contained a
tweak that did. Or maybe it took both of them to fix this one. Thank you.
Thank you.

Where is your System folder located?
