I have a really weird problem with WinXP, and I have no idea how it has arisen.
The problem is, my StartUp folder in HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders is set to "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup" but it should be my user name, Cerbero, instead of All Users. When I change it, it changes back to the faulty path when I log off and then back on.
This wouldn't be a problem if I were the only one who used the computer, then I would have all the startup items in the All Users folder anyway, but now I need some apps to start only when I log on, for example an FTPd and such.
Does anyone know how I can remedy this? I've tried changing with both Regedit and TweakUI for XP.

Thanks

[EDIT]
Never mind.. It works now for some reason, after a couple of tries.. :P
