Thank you for all these wonderful tips!
I tried running OneCare, but get an error message: We're sorry. This version of the Windows Live OneCare safety scanner doesn't work with your Web browser or operating system.
I'm running the Vista version on IE 8, so dunno why I can't get it running.
I was trying to run CCleaner to sort out to startup error messages I get: "C:\Windows\inf\other.exe" & "C:\Windows\System32\config\win.exe" - something about them not being able to load cos they can't be found in the reg.
Would appreciate any help in these 2 matters (Running OneCare & the 2 reg startup errors)
Ta much!
