K-Lite enables you to watch any Movie in ANY format basically
Thanks for the info..I have one question..I can't uninstall somethings because it say it cannot locate some folders something like that..I will like to put CCleaener on that computer so it can help me clean it up but I don't have internet on that laptop..Can I save CClenaer on a USB then install it on that computer?
Wild Tangent?! Come along, Sherman. Time to use the Way Back Machine.
I haven't seen that junk in ages.
Well this is a laptop that crashed like 1 year ago so yeah..Most of the things in it are really old.
Before you get rid of McAfee & Norton, etc., you should download and install a good antivirus program. 2 free ones available that work very well... Avast Home 4.8 (my choice) and Avira. This site Filehippo has the cleanest versions of anything you'll ever need. They pride themselves on cleanliness. Great starting point.
And as you can see in the taskbar it shows I still have Mcafee,Norton, Aol Security center and QuickTime..even tho I already uninstalled them..
Anyways to get rid of them?
Is it OK if I search for all McAfee's/Norton and Aol files and delete them since I can't uninstall it?
hmm... Norton always was a pain to uninstall. trey the Norton Removal App. HERE and see if that gets rid of things. as far as McAfee idk man. try going into Safe Mode and see if you can't uninstall/Remove the Folder/Files.
as Corona said use either of those provided Anti-Virus Apps.
Note: to get into "Safe Mode" reboot PC/Notebook and hit F8 BEFORE the Windows Logo Boot Screen appears.

Rading everthing on this page is essential should you want to do any of it.
I used to be very Anti-AOL after using their ISP for two years, so much I had made an app called AOL Killer years ago that would remove all of it from a system, funny no download site would host it.
I know first hand that AOL will leave junk behind.
As old as that computer is with allot of the junk on it like WildTangent I'd just do a format and start fresh, but only if I had the Windows install disc.

Full System Restore (Destructive) Using Gateway System Recovery Windows XP Hard Drive
This option completely erases the hard disk and reinstalls factory-shipped files. It also allows the recreation of the recovery partition. Use this option if the hard drive is blank or all other options fail to restore the machine to a satisfactory condition.
Note: All your personal data files and applications will be lost. Be sure that you have your data files backed up before performing this option.
Note: Due to the large number of virus and spyware threats on the internet, it is recommended that you disconnect all internet connections before reinstalling Windows?. After the Windows installation, antivirus and firewall software can be installed and then the internet connection can be re-enabled to update the antivirus definitions and perform Windows Updates.
1. Remove all CDs or DVDs from the optical drives.
2. Turn off the computer using the normal Windows shut down process.

4. Turn on the computer. To start recovery, at the prompt press the F11 key.
5. In the Systems Restore Options dialog box, select Full System Restore (Destructive), and then click Next.
6. In the System Restore - Format and Recover dialog box, click Yes.
