Actually, I only downloaded iTunes, quicktime and Gom Player that's all. I
always try not to install too many things cause I know the consequences :) I
also take notice if it is vista compatible or not. I just wanna add that I
just installed the windows update (which was optinal) but it made a great
difference as explorer does not restart like it used to. Thnx for ur reply. I
will also advise further in case of things got worse again. cheers
