Project 1 / Runtime Error 9 on Start-Up, please help.

[Jake Carter]

Hello around!

Past 2 days I've been having this weird error when my windows loads and every time I restart my PC.

The error is ''Runtime Error 9: Subscript Out Of Range'' and Project1 is written on the top left of the error box.

I checked my startup list in msconfig but didn't see anything suspicious there.

Can someone please give me any hints on how can I get rid of this annoying thing.

Thank you in advance.

Jake

Jake, first, welcome to Wilders!
Runtime errors (http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000380.htm) can be caused by several things and Project1 could be malware. Perhaps you want to try both Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php) and SUPERAntiSpyware (http://www.superantispyware.com/index.html) free versions to see what they find. Keep us posted. Good luck!

I scanned my system with Malwarebytes like you suggested but it found just a few Adwares connected to IE. I fixed them and I still get this error.

I've read around the internet that Project1 can be a virus if it is running after windows is loaded and you can see it in Processes after pressing ALT+CTRL+DEL but I don't have it there.

Maybe that Project1 is connected to some kind of program that is loading upon startup because like I said I don't see anything suspicious..

Jake, try both AutoRuns (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx) and Process Explorer (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx) to see if Project1 appears there. Both programs run without installation once unzipped.

BTW, do try SUPERAntiSpyware as well, because sometimes what one program (like MBAM) does not find, the other one will.
