For some reason after I installed the WinXP2600 eval I noticed a Wi on my
Start/Program..list and I can't get rid of it.  It shows as a "file" the
same size and installation time and the Windows Media.lnk on the list.  I
have tried changing users and deleting it in the start folder of my user
account, but it won't let me.  When I click it a window flashes and closes.
It is in my documents and settings/user/start menu/ programs  --just a Wi
...any suggests are appreciated.

I've gotten this too.  This isn't us, near as I can tell: I spent some time
trying to sort it out but never got anywhere.  Eventually it just went away.
Annoying, though.
