Yes! Have a nice clean machine now. Everything loaded OK on the reformat. Thanks to all above for your help.

For goodness sakes! F-lock was on! Windows is loading now!

Thanks, I'll have a look, I was just about to pull it apart to see if it needed cleaning. My son likes "F-Lock"??

OK NOW I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO As I said i took my 60G seagate hard drive (with the virus's/damaged exe's) out of of my desktop and put it in a convertor case so that it will connect to my laptop via a USB port as drive E:. I used my laptop uptodate McAfee to clean all the bugs off. It...

Just to advise I have pulled the hard drive out of my desktop. I have put it in an external hard drive adaptor and connected it via a USB port to my laptop. It's come up as drive E in my laptop and I am currently cleaning it up with my up-to-date laptop McAfee virus deep scan. I am also doing...

tviman, I think the latest version is Firefox 0.8 - correct me if I am wrong. Just doing some reading on it.

Thanks tviman, And are there any other options open to me with this problem before I download Mozilla (i.e. any further checks on firewall or some corruption or some program which has adjusted my firewall (like some add-wares do)??

zebratech, Thanks! Where can I get a good clean download of Mozilla Firefox? Will it work parallel with IE without any problems and if I want to delete it, will it go without going into pains like regedit to get rid of it?

Note: I went into "run" typed in sfc /scannow and tried to repair it, it brought up "Windows File Protection" and this prompted me to install my original win XP CD, which I did, it then went into "Please wait while Windows verifies that all protected Windows files are intact and in their...

At present I cannot access web sites via Internet Explorer, UNLESS I change my firewall setting from "filter" to "allow all". I have McAfee Internet security V5.0 & Win XP Home. I checked with McAfee Tech support - they said that it looks more like I have a problem in Internet Explorer. With...
