Ok I have tried everything I can think of to disable mobsync. I went to start , program, acessories and undid everything in there to where it says There are no offline items to synchronize. I also turned off synchronizing in internet explorer. Then I unchecked it from msconfig. Restarted and guess what it rechecks itself as usual. I found the registry key for it but I did not delete it for i wasnt for sure if taking that key out if it would crash win2k for i know how picky it is. Anyways my question is how am I supposed to disable mobsync?
 
Delete it from the registry. Should be in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run.
 
I tried that, however it came back again. So any other ideas?
 
Try unregistering the mobsync from the cmd prompt using:

regsver32 "%systemroot%\system32\mobsync.dll" /u

This is an MS fix used to get rid of annoying event ID 4100 errors. Full article in KB 289650.
