Hi Laraine,
a .pif is a Program Information File - Windows
I suspect it is a remainder left from when you removed you ATT.net

You may need to edit your registry to remove it.

Be sure to back up your registry before making any changes!

What is your operating system?

Here is a page with references to that file.

See the last post;

Open WIN.INI in Notepad and type REM at the beginning of the line in which
you see 
QRUNQ.PIF then save it and reboot
Example:
[windows]
load=
rem RUN=C:\CPQS\BACKWEB\HELP\QRUNQ.PIF,
NullPort=None

I hope this helps.

Hi,

I found this list through an ask Jeeves search.  I was trying to find out 
what is up with the file qrunq.pif which seems to suddenly be missing from 
my computer.  Each time I start up the computer tells me that it:

        "Cannot find the file qrunq.pif (or one of its components)."

As you go one saying OK, it eventually tells you:

        "Could not load or run "qrunq.pif" specified in the win.ini file.  Make 
sure file exists on your        computer or remove the reference to it in the 
win.ini file.

This just started happening after we took ATT.net off our computer as the 
internet browser.  It had gotten installed through an act of ignorance and 
we didn't want it at all.  But now, we have this problem.

Can anyone tell me how to fix this?
