You might want to ‘Restore’ it to a previous date when it worked fine - I have that information if desired.

Reboot your computer.

Be careful to put AVG free together with Spybot, AVG has a built in Spyware facility you just need to enable it. My computer actually gave me a problem with those two running together the one sees the other as a virus…to make it short.

You should have a good anti-virus program that you run at least once a week (daily if other people use your computer or you do a lot of browsing and downloading on the net).

You should also have a good spyware program which you should run at least once a week.

You should also have a good Registry Cleaner program which you should run at least once a week.

I use all of the programs listed below. Besides being good programs, and FREE, you also have the ability to continue working on your computer (online or offline) while the program is running.

AVG is a FREE anti-virus program that is excellent

Spybot - Search & Destroy removes spyware and it’s FREE.

Eusing Free Registry Cleaner is good and relatively fast.

Also, after running the various programs above,

If you’re running XP, try the following:

Go to:

Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleanup

After that is done, go to:

Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Defragmenter

I believe that with both of the above you can still be using your computer while they are performing their task.

        i hope you do not take offense,         To that that’s gone before;         ’Tis only that it’s my two-cents,         And not one penny more. §;o)
