The website name is Crackpatching.com and it opens automatically after each restart.
I have searched startup folder, regedit entries, ran malware scan & virus scan. Nothing has been detected related to this.
Then how come this website is opening automatically and how to stop it?

It sounds like a browser extension,
reset your browsers.

Here's what happened...
There was an icon inside my games folder that didnt do anything. Clicking it just gave me an error (forgot the error already). I took the risk and deleted the icon. After a reset, my Games folder was showing up as an ordinary folder (no card icon below it).
Can anyone copy their Games folder and attach to this post??? Or maybe just give me the solution...
~ishtangli
maybe that's a glitch in the system files... why don't you just hard reset your phone? back up your contacts and calendar of course..
Attached is the file you have deleted. This file is the icon for the Games folder (it's actually a shortcut file). You can customize the icon of any folder by creating a file named "icon.lnk" with a content similar below:
1#ceshell.dll,-162
Using a 3rd party File Explorer (e.g. Resco), you will be able to see this file. Using the defaul File Explorer, you will only be able to see this file when you turn on "View All Files" option (tap and hold on any open area of the default File Explorer and this option will be shown on the context menu).
In my experience, this icon appears inside the Games folder when I go through Start -> Programs -> Games when the "View All Files" option is turned on. Try turning it off and this icon file disappears.
Have fun,

Marc,
It would take too long to restore all my applications and settings if i Hard Reset.
File didnt work. Placed it inside the Games folder and reset my device. Have you had experience restoring any of these icon files?
~ishtangli
Nope, didn't have such problem. I also deleted that icon.lnk in the Games folder before thinking that it was installed wrongfully by some of the 3rd party apps... to my surprise, the Games folder was reduced to an ordinary folder icon when I go to the Programs menu. So what I did was got that file from one of my colleagues, copied it to my device and tried to solve the issue of hiding that icon file. Below are the current screen shots from my pocket pc... hope it helps...
ishtangli, my ROM is still the stock one: 1.66 WWE... so am not sure if the functionality was changed in other ROM upgrades (1.72, WM2003SE) =)
that's a very possible suggestion! i think the functionality wouldnt change in other rom versions.. i'd say go with the RESCO solution
Maybe some kind soul could post their entire games folder...
~ishtangli
Here it is...
still didnt work. hmmm.... seems kinda simple but it just wont work. WM2003SE thing?!?! Whatever it is, im not hard resetting my device just to get some damn icon back. Thanks guys! If you find any solution, post it here aite...

Games Icon
Try this.
Download, unzip and copy the icon.lnk file within to the /Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Games folder.
It is a shortcut to target the shell *.dll file that contains the icon that is displayed for the games folder: shellres.dll,-8229
So that must be the difference, the link to the icon file...
from
1#ceshell.dll,-162 (ROM1.66)
to
shellres.dll,-8229 (WM2003SE)...
Yeah

I have a sound called msgbox.wav that is very annoying. I use a onebridgeclient for checking my work email and everytime this connects I get this msgbox clunky sound. I found the file but I cannot remove it or change it to something else because it is writeprotected. Is there anything I can do?. I cannot change the sound in normal settings. I have shut every sound down and still it goes of when connecting to my inbox.
Try using TotalCommander, freeware file manager. It can replace most protected files (copy over it)
If in any cases that it is not able to, the program may be using it. Try disabling the problem by either some TaskManager, or remove them from the start list, and try again. Then re-enable the program.
I hate programs that tried to be funny with so call 'real-sound' effects.
I just tried to delete it using resco file explorer, didn't work. Gives me a message that the file is in ROM memory and can't be deleted, is there really nothing I can do?

You can't delete the file, you have to overwrite it as hanmin says above, just create a wav file with no sound, make sure you name it msgbox.wav and paste it in your windows directory, a warning will come up asking if you want to write over it, just click ok and bobs your uncle, sorted!

Lately, every time I try to access the Windows folder, the file explorer freezes and can't be killed.

Have you installed TFL3D? I hear that it installs over 1000 files in the windows directory. I have the same problem but I find that its just scanning the oh so many files in that directory. if i click on the windows folder in any file browser the phone effectively freezes, however it takes about 5 mins to scan all the files before showing them to you. Try it again but see if leaving it for a while to see if its just thinking about it
-this is really annoying and I was considering uninstalling TFL3D for this very reason but I found that I dont REALLY need to go into the windows folder all that often
Ah that must be it. I haven't installed TF3D, but I have a whole load of other stuff installed
On the new Shadow, there's a system file in the Windows/Startup folder called SignatureReplace.lnk, that links to an app in the Windows Folder of the same name. Apparently TMo screwed up with this file, and it deletes the Outlook signature after every restart.
It's a protected system file so I can't replace it. anyone have any idea how to delete this file? It's driving me crazy that I need to re-input the sig after every restart.

Bump. bottom line is, does anyone know how to delete protected system files in WinMo? I've been searching but can't seem to find a solution.
I have a question (I searchd but could not find an answer):
Say I installed an app from the marketplace,
Is there a way to save the installation cab that was downloaded ?
(So I would not need to download it again after hard-reset)
Thanks
I was searching too, but no luck.
Every result gives info that Marketplace is keeping a list with the purchased/downloaded software and that's all.
Any app you download from the Marketplace is tied to the hotmail account you used for the purchase.
So in the event of needing to Hard reset you just sign back in and can download the app again. Of course it knows if you've bought the app so you dont have to pay again.
Just goto the Marketplace and select 'My Applications' from the front screen and it will show you the whole list of apps you've downloaded in the past. Just Re-download them.

i think you misunderstood the TC... i think he wanted to know if there was a way to save the actual "Cab" that installs on your phone...

You are correct.
I want to know if there is a way to get the actual CAB file to the phone,
so I would not need to waste my data quota to download the same app over and over again.
I think it deletes the cab.
Save the complete directory for the app under program files and just re-load that. Save any icons or .lnk files from the windows directory or windows/start menu that go with the app. Not clean, but works.

Be careful with programs which use registry entries though...

That's an Idea . . .
But - what if it's the office 2010 package ?
It installs itself to the windows folder, and . . .
well, backing up/restoring the windows folder after a hard-reset or rom upgrade is not a good idea.
So -
anyone knows how to get the cab ?
where is it saved during the download process ?
How to make it stay there after the installation ?
Thanks
