Smitfraud, etc.
by Guest Heather- 4 replies

Hope this gets thru.......but just finished trying to clean up my neighbour's computer after his 20 year old was home for the weekend and left him with Zlob and Smitfraud and a gazillion other things. Do I rightly recall that someone on here said I could not get into Safe Mode with a SATA Drive??? Because I couldn't get into it on his and noticed the SATA stuff. I still think (in my spare time) that I am going to write a Dummy Book for Computer Dummies......a really basic thing which I could call "OK, Now you Have a New Computer.....What's Next". Neighbour didn't know that he had to a) update Spybot; and b) actually scan with it. He had some 24,00…

Greetings, I've noticed a great slowdown of broadband speed when using IEv6. (broadband normally 785kbps IEv6 reduced to 31.7kbps) If I use FireFoxv2 speed is normal.. (785kbps) I've AV checked IEv6 nothing found.. Did a spyware/adware check also nothing found. Did a repair of IEv6 from ME nothing changed. Did a full Registry scan nothing found. Anyone got any ideas what might be causing this behavior. tks RTS

A little belated, but still relevant!. Looks like a case of survival, as in 'live and let live' (or is it 'live and let die'?). Harry.

Help: Getting Files Off My WindowsMe PC
by Guest Searcher7- 9 replies
- 458 views
I probably have the worst luck of anyone in history when it comes to anyhting associated with Microsoft. My first two computers when down taking everything with them. My secondary harddrives, my Jazz drives, my Zip drives, my other apps for transferring data between systems have all failed me when I needed them. I am now on my third internet pc and the warning signs are there. The pc is grossly outdated and I need another. Since my Zip drive no longer works with this pc either, I just picked up a 4.0G Sandisk Cruzer (since no other option is working), and I'm having difficulties getting my system to find and install it. I do not have "Add New Hardware" in…

Hello! I doubt anyone will be able to answer this. I'm trying to squeeze every last byte out of my Father's ME system. In Msconfig/Win.ini I find a key named [TRANTOR_SETUP_PROGRAM_LOADED_TEMPORARY_INFO]. Has this got any reason for existence? Doesn't sound likely, does it. I'll disable it for a test, but still would like to know what it was I disabled. Thank you kindly!

¿Virus en Windows Millenium Edition?
by Guest Isaac Armando Guerrero Pineda- 16 replies

¡Hola a todos!, Mi problema es el siguiente: En Windows Millenium Edition (En español), cada vez que muevo el mouse empieza a actuar de una forma muy extraña, primero, se mueve rápido o empieza a saltar, si puede hasta abre algunos programas de los que estan en el escritorio y al mismo tiempo muestra varios menús contextuales, y mientras se deshabilita el mouse (tambien hasta el teclado) detiene por unos segundos el sistema, algunas veces hasta lo reinicia, cada vez que muestra el logo de Compaq, en la parte superior izquierda muestra el siguiente mensaje:"error 304 - Keyboard or System Unit error" (lo incluyo por si se trata de alguna actividad vírica) (a pesar de que t…

Hasn't anyone installed a hard drive into multiple computers?
by Guest Ushnell- 4 replies

I have done this without thinking of something until now and here's the story: I am someone that collects used computers and one thing that I've done is took a Windows Millennium edition containing hard drive out of a Dell and installed it into two other Dell computers and I am thinking of installing it in a Gateway computer. The problem here is that I'm asking myself: how do you remove the recent computer's features, settings and the device drivers information out of the registry? Please shed some light on this darkness anyone who has a any info on how I can fix this problem; I'll appreciate it very much.

wallpaper question

Someone wanted to change the desktop wallpaper. What I need to know is why during a re-start, the old wallpaper appears just before the desktop loads and then the new wallpaper comes up after all the icons appear. I've also lost the ability to uncheck the checkbox on the web tab on the display properties dialogue box to view the desk as a web page. -- So says the cat

Sudden Abnormal mouse erratic behaviour 1 2
by Guest newbie2000- 45 replies
- 1.9k views
My computer, running WinXP Pro with 128 MB RAM, today has started acting very strange. Although normally it has to be double-clicked to open a file or folder, now it sometimes opens files/folders/e-mail with only one mouse click, not two. However, it is very inconsistent, sometimes requiring two clicks as normal, but sometimes requiring only one click. Another symptom is that when a window is open, while browing the web, the scroll bar on the right is very herky-jerky, but sometimes not - again being inconsistent. Both these problems occur pretty often - enough to be very annoying. Another symptom is that it when I try to capture text by holding down the …

Ugrading from Windows ME to XP
by Guest laura- 2 replies
- 340 views
I gave my stepmother an old computer. The computer originally had Windows 98 on it and upgraded it to XP Home addition. She recently passed away and we are disposing of the computer. This computer is actually older than my father's computer which has ME on it. Can I take my operating disks from the the computer that will be disposed of and install them on my Dad's computer which has Windows ME on it? The system was licensed to the old computer. If we can't do that, we probably will switch out the drives, but it will still be easier to upgrade my Dads than doing all the switching. When I upgraded the computer I gave to my mom, I put in a new hard…

by Guest somae- 2 replies
- 357 views
We've got an hp pavilion 8775c computer that was in the trash. It was full of viruses, so I erased the harddrive (windows me). I installed win98 on it. I then purchased the recovery cds. The computer doesn't have the original sound card (I added a new one) and I added extra memory. The recovery cds (which install windows me) is not recognizing the computer although these cds are for this model. (The mainboard is the original one.) The computer has a sticker for windows me on it with the software key. I'm looking for a copy of an installation disk for windows me (upgrade or new) that I can use to reinstall windows me - or any suggestions on how to ge…

Floppy disk, do I need it? 1 2
by Guest Justin Thyme- 27 replies
- 1.3k views
I'm strongly considering a new desktop computer and notice that many (most?) of them no longer include a slot for floppy disks. I feel like I'd be losing something that might be necessary, even though I very rarely use that feature any longer. I believe there are accessory floppy disk readers/writers available, but are they worth the trouble and expense? What will I lose if I have no floppy disk ability at all? TIA Ken Bland
