I downloaded a virus when I downloaded skype off of a third party website. Now I've got an .exe named skypeout on my desktop that doesn't want to move. Windows XP won't let me delete it because it is in use by another program. I could manually delete it off of my hard drive? I can't move it anywhere or delete it, it is alo probably logging keys too.

I downloaded a bunch of spyware by mistake this morning from a link my friend gave to me, he was unaware as well. I was able to get rid of the majority of it, but there are a few things in my registry i am unable to delete, i used spy bot to get rid of most of the spy ware but for some reason it is not detecting the rest, also ad aware detects it but is unable to remove it since it is running in the background, i am unable to find the processs from task manager and end it so i cant delete it from the registry manually. What it is doing is bascially spamming pop ups on my pc every so often, here are the suspected names of the infections : mpise.dll , h22o0cf3ef2.dll , h62o0gf3e62.dll.

I regularly click on the tools button to delete temp. files and cookies while on the internet to prevent my computer from slowing down. However, it does get slow, so I go to disk cleanup and it shows thousands (like 20thousand or more) temporary files to clean and shows them as locked.

On one of my hard disks there is a folder that wont delete. When I try to delete it, it says: "Cannot delete FOLDERNAME: The directory is not empty." if I try and open the folder it says: "F:Folderfolder is not accessible. The file or dicectory is corrupted and unreadable." I have loads of stuff on the hard disk so I don't fancy reformatting it. No O/S is stored on it.

I have a Batch File that deletes some text files in some applications. These empty text files are remade when the application is started. This slows the application startup. I would like to have the empty text files remade by the batch file during bootup. Is this possible.

a classic slow responding computer, complete with slow opening of browser, choppy videos (buffering related I guess) on Windows Media Player 10 and general sluggishness all around. I'm careful to keep up to speed on my Spybot and Ad-aware SE programs and run my McAfee virus program regularly. They all have appeared to run clean. At the most recent startup before this writing, Task Manager told me there were 53 processes going on. Is that way too much.?

Using XP Pro SP2.Windows explorer doesn't show c:documents and settings/jdl/cookies folder when opened from the start->programs menu.However, Start->Run with c:documents and settingsjdlcookies typed in opens the folder. Folder options->View has the "Show hidden folders" option checked.I do not have the windows xp disk since the program was loaded from a corporate server several years ago. I no longer work for that company.Any assistance would be appreciated. Not a big deal since I can access the folder. It may, however, indicate that other problems are afoot. I discovered this when Counterspy Ver. 2 Beta identified the cookie from CNET Networks, Inc., and I couldn't find it in Windows Explorer.

This fight between my computer and me has been going on for over a year & it's getting really annoying - because nothing I've tried works! Symptom: In the middle of doing anything...or even when I'm out of the room and computer is idle...the damned machine just stops! No error message, no BSOD -- nothing. It can happen anywhere from 2 or 3 to maybe 10 times a day. When I'm working, I can tell when computer has hung up because suddenly it ignores a command or keystroke. I can move the mouse pointer around the screen, but the cursor stays in its last functioning shape. Here's a curious thing: no keys work but I can click a mouse button between 6 and 8 times while moving the cursor around, and then the box gives one "beep" sound and that's the end! Now, the mouse cursor won't move either and I have no choice but to power off & then reboot. (<ctrl><alt><del> doesn't work, of course

Im trying to find out how to reboot my computer.I currently had windows XP Pro and I deleted something I needed by accident and then restarted. That's when it stopped working all it does is bring up the background pic and no icons or start bar. I have a win Xp pro disc but it doesn't do anything it doesn't pick it up for nothing so i was wondering how to make it pick it up manually ?

Am running XP with sp2 . Never come across this problem till now. When I get onto the Microsoft website and try to add updates manualy, the site checks out my PC system to see what os system im running (i presume), then I get 2 options, 1 to install custom updates and 1 for download priority. If I click on either I get a bar with moving green dots in telling me itschecking for latest updates on my computer. It does not stop! And when I press the Back link or close it just about freezes my whole pc, even Ctrl, Alt & delete does not work

I use Windows XPpro with HD partitioned so that D drive holds all applications. Unfortunately some applications install by default to C drive 'My Programs' and there is no option to change the destination manually. Does anyone know a way around this?

I have a Dell XPS computer with Windows XP SP3. Just yesterday it started acting up by when I went to shut it down (and it does this every time now) it says "ending program "sprtcmd.exe" , then unable to end program, so I have to end manually EVERY DARN TIME. This just started with shut down last nite. I did a system restore and that fixed it, BUT then my McCaffee Antivirus program said it can not load due to an error, basically the antivirus program got all screwed up, so I UN-DID the restore. Now the antivirus works well but the stupid "sprtcmd.exe" problem is back! So I did that about 5 times picking different System Restore points each time and for some reason the McCafee screws up, so I had to undo each one.

I have a game that I play sometimes. I downloaded it from a very reliable site as I have 3 or 4 other games from the same site that have always worked fine. On this particular game, every once and a while it will freeze up on me and the only way to get out is to manually turn off my pc and then turn it back on again. When I turn it back on my pc does some kind of a scan and tells me that the NTFS volume is dirty. I have never seen this term used before. I am running a Dell with Windows XP sp2. What is a NTFS volume? What does this mean and what do I need to do? I have Avast antivirus and Armor 2 Net firewall and 2 different antispyware programs running.

Several items I've tried to update give me an error message " Can not update can not connect to server ". I don't know what's going on. There's no firewall blockage problem, my Anti virus is affected, my Gmail account won't check mail or new open mail. Not sure who else is affected, have been getting Microsoft downloads as recent as this morning.

Without using a third party program, does the XP system itself offer a quick way to see where my start up originate from, since msconfig startups only gives most of the line but not all, plus I cannot manually copy those lines to the run box to see where they go. Not having as in my case and AV, if I disable all the startups, reboot and the some startups are still there, can I interpreted those startups as malware then?
