| Antivirus & Antispyware Freeze-up - HELP!!! Win XP SP2 - Using Norton Antivirus 2005, ParetoLogic Antispyware, and a couple others. Every one of these programs freeze up at the same point. Is there any way to delete this file? When using My Computer, or Windows Explorer, as soon as I try to open the folder, the program fails. Here is the path, including the file name (I think): c:\Documents and Settings\Admin\Local Settings\Temp\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\0HYF8H6N\search[1].htm |

| Re: Antivirus & Antispyware Freeze-up - HELP!!! I take it you already tried to delete and it won't. Try it in safe mode if that is the case.

To get into Safe Mode repeatedly tap the F8 key as the computer is starting up. Use the Arrow key to select Safe Mode. Malke -- Elephant Boy Computers www.elephantboycomputers.com "Don't Panic!"

I will look for Plug-ins for this search on your Browser and in the registry as follow: 1= Click start >> Control Panel >> Double Click Network and Internet Connections >> Double click Internet Options, on the IE Properties window you will see these Options: General | Security | Privacy | Content | Connections | Programs | Advanced . Click on General Tab (1st Tab on the left) and you will see a Button called [ Clear History ..] click on it to clear your History caches, then click on [Delete Files..] to delete Internet Files created over the time, click on [ Delete Cookies...] to delete your cookies left by visiting websites. = Then try to Disable the Add-Ons on your Browser somehow installed on your browser, On how to disable the Add-ons follow this: Click on Programs Tab and then click the Manage Add-Ons Button there Disable the None/Not Verified Plug-ins/Add-ons ( you can Renable them one-by-one later and see which is the culprit or you can send them here in your next post) and click [OK] to confirm your Changes. Click on Advanced Tab and scroll down under the browsing option and uncheck this box: [&] Browsing [ ] Enable Third-Party browser extensions (Req Rest) and click Apply then Ok to close your IE Properties. 2- If all fail download the Hijackthis and send the report to one of many forums for analysis and troubleshooting: When all else fails, HijackThis v1.99.1 (http://aumha.org/downloads/hijackthis.zip) is the preferred tool to use. It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware. Post your log to http://aumha.net/viewforum.php?f=30, http://castlecops.com/forum67.html, http://forums.subratam.org/index.php?showforum=7, or other appropriate forums for expert analysis, not here. Please perform one step (1,2) at a time and see if that will help your issue. HTH. Please let us know. Regards, nass ---- www.nasstec.co.uk |
