Really need computer help

What OS are you running? I'll assume it's XP sp2. But advice will work for sp1 and win2k also.

OK, Try a run with the MS antispyware program.
MS Downloads

You will have to have a legit install of your OS.

Then Turn off the messanger service.

Then replace your host file with the one attached.


I don't see a good AV program in your list. What are you running? Is it still updating?

Are your MS patches up to date?

I would also recomend that you switch to Firefox as a browser. Ver. 1.5 was just released. At the very least turn off the popups in IE.

Use safemode and MSConfig to controll what loads untill you get it fixed.
