Insecure Startup Items folder detected

I'm new to the Mac world having just got a MBP a couple months ago and after installing Flip4mac and a software upgrade requiring a restart I get a Box on startup with the message:

Insecure Startup Items folder detected. Items in the Startup Items folder ("/Library/StartupItems/") have not been started because the folder does not have the proper security settings. <OK>

I've hit the help (?) button and followed the advice there but still get the message every time I restart.

Hitting OK continues with the startup process and everything seems to run OK but I would like to fix the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

13" MBP, 2,4GHz dual core, 4MB RAM, 320MB 5400, OS X 10.6.4

Thanx,

Make sure you run Repair Permissions when done with the above fix.

Thanks for that link Bob. I was experiencing this until recently but had never bothered to find an answer. I did a permission repair recently to fix a different problem and this seems to have fixed it.

Also, thanks so much for the info and link. I'll get that done as soon as possible.

Perfect! Being a "new" switcher I really appreciate the help and am very happy to find the Mac community so helpful.
