    Hijacked Browser??

    Another note: after I closed Internet Explorer after trying TrendMicro online scan, I opened taskManger and noticed that CPU usage was still 100% even though IE was closed. In the Processes - iexplorer.exe was using between 45-50% and System was using 50-55% (with IE closed ???) When I...

    Hijacked Browser??

    Salem, Thanks for the reply. It started suddenly one day, and as far as cache control, I'm not seeing it in the properties of the icon...am I missing it somewhere. Does the cache control the temporary internet files?? If so, I've already wiped that clean. Stumped....

    Hijacked Browser??

    Hello all... I cant figure out this dilema I'm having with my neighbor's Dell running XP Home (P4 2.0 256mb 80GB). OK the dilema...it was taking an enormously long time for IE (IE6) to open a web page (any page). I opened task manager and looked at the Performance and the CPU usage was at...

    Cant login to Win2k after changing Workgroup name :(

    Thanks Lander for the reply. I assume the Administrator account was renamed to the users login account since you cant remove the admin account. I assumed it was a workgroup since there was no "domain" field underneath the password field in the Log In screen. I would have been able to...

    Cant login to Win2k after changing Workgroup name :(

    Ok...weird thing happened. Laptop with Windows 2k. The laptop was previously part of another workgroup or domain. I proceeded to change the Workgroup name and the Computer name to network to 2 other local PC's (no domain). Afterwards, MS says it needs to reboot so changes can take effect. I...
