OK, I'm running win2k fully up to date and have just downloaded symantec's W32 Worm Blaster. I'm running that before doing a full check with AVG.
Any other suggestions before this baby fries my machine? |

I can't find any viruses in AVG and that Symantec program aint doing shit.
Is it an OS reinstallation situation or what? I could do with a serious reply right about now, so long as I aint infringing on all your hectic schedules, of course. 8) |

OK, so I go into "system" in the control panel and can't find anything called "error correction". Apologies if I'm missing something obvious. :oops: |

OK, I restarted and there's no error message. Does that mean it's OK? |

Various things to check for this issue, all fairly specific-
Here's a link that discusses the issue, fairly in depth. It's a tech geek site, and some of the steps on it you do NOT want to do unless you are really comfortable digging around in your machine, since they go play in the registry, which can be an unfriendly neighbourhood.
They also bring to light the fact that even with updated anti-virus, this can lurk and be missed, and you have to manually remove it, thus playing in the registry.
Many sites, such as AVG, Symantec and McAfee will give you step by steps to manually remove most items from your computer.

Cheers for the link! I'm not getting the error message anymore but it's been bookmarked for future reference -- I was looking for that sort of a specific discussion but failed miserably. Much obliged, sir.
Ace: I managed to run "checkdisk" in the end and didn't locate any errors, but it still feels like I just gave my PC Prozac -- it's an all around happier machine. :)
Help much appreciated!
win2k?
oooooooooooooooooooookkkkkkkkkkkk
I'll leave it to somebody with an all around better knowledge of OSs than I to pat you on the head and explain its advantages. :D |
