I have a link on my website that will opens another website (javascript popup) which needs authentication to login. That site is completely separate to my site so when the user closes my site that site stays open (by design). But since it needs the users authentication when the user opens my...

I have a computer that has an addition to the taskbar called search assistant. I've ran AV and Spybot and can't seem to figure out how to get rid of it. What do I have to do to get rid of it. Robert

I'm getting the following error when trying to do a screen print of an active window. It only happens with a specific Application (Cadra - drafting program). "item not collected. Delete items to increase space" I've opened the clipboard viewer in Office and deleted all items. It still...

I'm trying to install Norton AV2004 on a Win98 machine. After the installation I get an error that "Norton Antivirus has encountered an internal error" Uninstall and reinstalling Norton AV. I've tried doing that and it doesn't work. I tried the Liveupdate fix on Norton's site and that didn't...

Another Issue the User is seeing is the listing of programs is also looking to his user profile. Is that also a setting in the Registry? Thank you Robert

Thank you for the response. I will look at that entry.

When I open Internet Explorer everything looks o.k. But then I type in a web address (www.yahoo.com) and IE tries to find it on my desktop. I get a Cannot Find Page error and in the address bar is C:\documents and settings\username\desktop\www.yahoo.com. If I click the drop down to see the...

When I ran the memtest 86 the system hung after about 5 minutes of running. So that tells me that it's more than likely a hardware issue. I just wish I could tell what piece is bad. I'm going to reseat all of the devices tonight and see if I can get any farther with it. Robert

I did check the system temps and the They were running around 75 F and 95 F. I can't remember which was running at what temp. It seems high though. I'll check it again tonight. Also how can you tell the temp on the AIDA download. Thanks for the info that download will come in very...

I tried the mouse in a different USB port. Same problem. I'll try disabling the port in Device Manager and possibly on the BIOS. I'll also try the memtest 86 How can I check for overheating? It doesn't seem to be hot to the touch. Is there some other way I can test for that? I'm pretty...

After I click the user to log in as (all users do the same) it will look like everything is ok and then I begin working and it will lock up. I can't do anything. So I have to shut it down by holding the power button in. Then I power it up again and the same thing occurs. Robert

I have a Sony Vaio 1.8ghz computer runing XP Home. The machine boots up just fine in all modes (VGA, SafeMode, and Regular). I get logged in and after about 5 to 10 minutes the machine locks up. I have reseated the memory, hard drive and other items on the motherboard. I did notice that the...

The user I was working with said they had downloaded an update for IE 6 so that must have corrupted this system also. Luckily they had the proper restore disks and I was able to get the system back to working order. My question is how did you revert back to IE 5 using a boot disk? Thanks Robert

I ended up running a format and recover using the recovery disk sent with the PC. It was an HP pavilion pc. Robert

Thanks I'll try that today.

I did try your steps in the first post before and after cleaning the HD of the viruses. When I did the fdisk /mbr the hard drive spun a little then the c:\ prompt came back. Should I have gotten a confirmation that it was done? When I did the sys c: it gave me a confirmation that it was done...

I can plug the drive into another computer and access it as a secondary drive. I have backed up the data. When I plug it into a different computer as a primary it gives me the same problem. I'm guessing the drive went bad. I've run scandisk and disk defrag on it and have found nothing wrong...

I'll try what you suggested ski and if that doesn't work then I'm going to try and reinstall Win 98. Thanks for all the help guys. Anything else you think of would be of great help. Robert

I can't boot into safemode. After it gives you the message that non of your drivers will be installed it stops. I can move the mouse and do CTRL-ALT-DELETE and shutdown but that's it. No processes are running nothing.

My computer boots up normally or so it seems. When it get's to the desktop (with no icons or taskbar) you see the taskbar flash then Mcafee splash screen displays and goes away then nothing. It just sits with the backgroud. I can do a CTRL-ALT-DELETE and end all the processes (which are...
