Hey folks! Any ideas as to why CA Anti-Virus application will not load? Tried removing it to reinstall... haha... yeah, right. Checking here with the know-it-alls (LOL) before I go to the CA website. TIA! P.S. Spybot found absolutehttp.dll during a scan. I removed the spyware. Did removing it have anything to do with CA Anti-Virus? HELPPPPPP!!!!!!

Howdy, Found a cure for our puter not starting completely.. For about 2 years our puter would fail to start 8 out of 10 times and have to do a scan disk to get it working.. Well over the weekend we removed/deleted all references to HP printer tool box and drivers.. Well kiss the frog, the puter now starts every time, fast and completely... Hasn't failed to start once... Who would have thought HP would have been the problem... :o) Rocky T Squirrel

Hi All, I have a usb driver running in Windows ME but when i type something in console prompt then either system crashes or console crashes. Exact steps are given below. 1) Plug in a usb modem. 2) Go to start->Run->Type command->Enter 3) Command prompt opens. Type something in command prompt. 4) Either system crashes or console crashes.

Boot Up Problem with Win ME (AV Related?)
by Guest Ben Alias- 3 replies

I have a friend who has an older computer, running Win ME. He has left town to go to Chicago, but in the mean time a 21-year-old intern has come to live at his place and needs to use his computer. His computer had an old version of Norton AV on it, which was not updated since 2004. So I advised the intern, Ellen, to remove Norton and install AVG instead. She does this. Unfortunately, she is not a computer-savvy person, and previously had only used Macs and XP machines. So, sometime after installing AVG and perhaps after installing Firefox, she starts getting these error messages, which she basically ignores. One of these messages said something about ins…

Spybot Warning
by Guest webster72n- 9 replies
- 559 views
Just curious if anyone else has received this warning message from spybot. The following popped up in a dialog box after finishing the latest update from yesterday, with a red 'x' in the upper left corner: "An outsider did inject malicious code into this application! It is strongly recommended that you do a full check-up of your system, including anti malware and anti virus scans." Personally I am not concerned, with my pc being fully protected at all times. Is this one of those schemes Shane was talking about, or must it be taken seriously? Harry.

OT but Important: Usenet Abuse and Impersonation by a sick individual using IP address 168.213.72.68 Hi: To all respective forum readers, please take notice: 1) First of all, my apologies for such a wide off-topic cross- posting. It's unusual, and very frowned upon. But I deem it necessary in lieu of recent events. You can just disregard if you will. 2) There is a user on the net who has impersonated "Don Klipstein", me, as well as other respectable Usenet posters. He/she is using our names, email addresses, and profiles to post nonsense on Usenet newsgroups. This impersonator seems to be located either in Burma or Korea and has the IP address of 168…
