  1. i386 folder is an important system folder. One of the most powerful too (in my opinion maybe). Definitely don't delete it (unless DjLizard says it's okay).

     

    I'd be interested to see what DjLizard has to say about this. ;)

     

    Actually, Humpty's here right now, and I'm very curious to know his response as well. He's all about slimming down XP. : )

  2. is it compatable with my OS windowsME?

     

    Maybe ask one the big dogs to be certain, but I don't know why it wouldn't be. It's the same thing as your winapp.ini with additional programs. The winapp.ini has some programs for CCleaner to detect properly, and winapp2.ini has additional, and updated program information.

     

    Does that make sense? I'm not sure that I'm explaining this clearly. <_<

  3. What's wrong with MS Office? :unsure:

     

    Personal preference I suppose. ;)

     

    But from experience my computer runs a whole lot better using Open Office. As soon as I install MS Office I get errors all over the place. I installed my MS Office for one day about a month ago, just to export some templates, and in that day had 10 errors in MS Office. I've never had even 1 error with Open Office. My roommate has had the same experience.

     

    By any chance...do you know what the size difference is between the two? Open Office is 243mb. I don't remember what the size is of MS Office.

  4. When you're done getting your computer cleaned you can come back to this thread to get suggestions on replacing some of the programs that you use.

     

    This is a sensitive topic for some, but you are using some programs that are heavy on resources. My suggestions (after cleaning your computer) are to replace Norton, Adobe, and MS Office.

     

    What firewall are you using? I didn't see one, but I'll look again. Norton's firewall?

  5. how can i repair installation?

    im also trying xplite...

     

    The XPlite seems to be the best option in my opinion. A repair installation takes a little bit of work. If the XPlite doesn't work for some reason, let me know and I'll give instructions for a repair install as a last resort. ;)

     

    Keep us posted! :D

  6. Thank you for the reply, the first wasn't an option (didn't have any of those system restore point any more). Second isn't mucht fun.

     

    But I fixed it using XPlite. Fully threw away the internet explorer stuff, then let XPlite install it again from C:\I386.

     

    Tnanks anyways.

    VeXocide

     

    Awesome! So did XPlite uninstall it?

     

    What I mean is...was it an actual uninstall of IE7, or a re-install of IE6?

  7. O dear! Sorry about interjecting here, but I'm afraid you (hlpme) misunderstood my comment! I wasn't saying that YOU are too lazy to look! I was saying that I was too lazy to look! That is why I wrote "lokoike = too lazy to look for himself"!

     

    Hope this clears that up! :)

     

    Interject away my friend. It's all good. :D

     

    At this point nothing can be done anyway until hlpme gets access to an admin account. ;) Are working on that hlpme?

  8. LOL :D Have no fear with the Hive Cleanup. It's harmless, and I can't think of a way that it could get messed up. ;)

     

    DjLizard is only suggesting that you disable the module (for the Indexing Service). You won't be removing it so if at any time you want to enable it again you can. It's simply turning it off and on (but it's still there). If you go to your "start" and then to "help and support" and look up indexing it will tell you what it is, how it works, and how to turn it off and on.

     

    haha - I just found you on another forum. :)

     

    Also, I have been doing some searching and some people have fixed the PlugPlay error by following DjLizard's instructions.

     

    Give it a try and let us know what happens. :)

  9. I just have a few quick after thoughts.

     

    1. How are your Temporary Internet Files and History configured: Tools > General > Browsing History > Settings.

     

    2. Did you use the "Import Cookies" wizard to save your favorite cookies?

     

    3. How is your IE7 configured? Just some basics so that I can set mine up the way that your is.

  10. I am sorry about that. After rebooting I was still logged on at all of my forums. I will keep trying to produce the problems that you are having.

     

    Give me a few days. I will only use IE7 and maybe it will happen to me after a while.

     

    If I can recreate your situation, I will let you know. Sorry, but that's all that I can do right now. MidTerms are here.

     

     

     

    Take Care,

    K

  11. Okay, I am not able to reproduce your problem.

     

    C:\Documents and Settings\user name

    cook12rj.th.jpg

     

    C:\Documents and Settings\user name\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files

    cook37ry.th.jpg

     

    The rest of the files that you indicated containing cookies, did not on my computer. I have more screen shots if needed.

     

    My index.dat file is still visible in my Content.IE5 folder.

     

    After rebooting my saved cookies were still saved.

     

    hmmm. I will keep trying.

  12. Yes. That is exactly the issue. I have restored my image 3 times, and tried it different ways. This only occurs if cc is installed, only on reboot, regardless of if you have it run on startup or not.

     

    I know it is weird, so please, anyone with IE7 installed, please confirm whether or not this is occuring to you.

     

    Gosh. At this point you have ME curious enough to install IE7. That is really weird.

     

    If my computer goes bizerk I'm calling you. Okay? :lol: j/k

  13. unfortunetly, this is still occuring with the IE7 Refreash released today. As I originally posted, ccleaner doesnt even have to run and this occurs, but it occurs upon bootup only.

     

    Any thoughts? And, yes I know, it's beta.

     

    So you're saying...

     

    1. If CCleaner is installed, and you don't run CC, then reboot...that the cookies are then cleaned?

     

    2. But that if CCleaner is not installed that the cookies are not cleaned after a reboot?

     

    Is that correct?

  14. There's not a lot to choose from in Omaha as far as repairs/techs.

    Omaha! I have some friends in Omaha, and I swear that people there are just the nicest people that you will ever meet. :D

    Everything looked good on mine (I think) except for video and monitor - and that reminds me...I was able to run the chkdsk /r last night, and then did defrag. Since then I've been getting plug and play errors on system log, which is one of the first errors I got a couple weeks ago.

    What does the error say? Is the plug and play turned off, or is it started?

    Last question...what on earth could be causing my hardware to go bad??!! Ideas? And why doesn't anything show up as problematic in my device manager? or the diagnostics I ran?

    I don't know why, but I just heard a story about a guy who had a 5 month old computer. He came home, and turned the computer on and....it Blew Up! :o

    darn! sorry about that double post. I didn't think the first one went because when the page finally changed, it said 'unable to find page'. aarrgghhh :angry:

     

    No problem. It's happening to everyone today. ;):angry:
