Need Help With Strange Error Message Barrages
Apr 16, 2005
Okay first I'm going to have to give a little background on what this problem may have to do with. A couple months ago this computer I am using was was infected with a dialer that I could not get rid of for the life of me. I asked for help on this forum, and all help given, was useful but could not get rid of the dialer permenantly. Ever everytime I would wipe the dialer from my computer (and by "wipe" I mean, I would fix it in spybot, Hijackthis, then delete it fromt the windows/system32 folder, and delete it from all TEMP folder, all in safe mode.) the dialer would return 6 hours to 2 days later. $teve recommended the Idea of making a Dummy Prvdi.exe file. but this didn't work because it would just be overwritten with the real file. I then decided to just live with it, but I couldn't take it anymore. So I came up with the Idea of make the Dummy File Read-only so it cannot be overwritten, and it worked. right now I have dummy files of Prvdi.exe and Tibs3.exe in my windows/system32 folder, but ever since I created those files, this strange phenomenon would occur:
after booting up my computer, when I open up Mozilla firefox 1.0, I will get a Barrage of error messages, LITERALLY a barrage! I'm talking 2 or 3 alerts per second, and they won't stop coming. the only way I can stop the stream of alerts is to stop the explore.exe process in the windows task manager, then run explore.exe again.

I have three XP computers (described in my profile). On one SP3 installed fine right away. On the newest one, after much trouble and with the help of others, I got everything to update and download:On my system with XP Home, I get the following error message when I go to the update site and SP downloads fine but fails to install and gives the same error message as follows: "The file c:windowssystem32smss.exe is open or in use by another application. Close all other applications and then click retry."No other applications are ever running when this occurs and I am baffled by it. Anyone got any ideas how to fix this?

As I was waiting for Firefox to load, I closed another program, and an alert window appeared saying something like A SOCKET CONNECTION HAS BEEN CLOSED. I've never seen a message like this. What does it mean?

I have an intermittent problem that causes a left click on my mouse to highlight not only the item I'm trying to select but everything below the selected item. For instance, clicking on a link on a web page causes the whole page below the link to become selected as if I was selecting the whole area. This happens across all programs when it happens including Explorer, Outlook, or anything where a selection can be made which leads me to believe it is an XP problem. The only way to resolve the problem is to reboot. I'm running XP Pro SP2 on a 3.4 P4 with 1 Gig of memory. This is a fresh install of XP on a new SATA drive but the problem occurred before this install as well. I thought the new install would cure it.

PC has recently started hanging in a particularly strange way. Most commonly, the screen blinks to black, then comes back, and the PC is frozen not even Num Lock will turn off. Sometimes however, it doesn't do the blink and just stops. This seems completely random, and isn't to do with any particular software that's running at the time. The only evidence is this entry in the Event Viewer - System Log: The browser service has failed to retrieve the backup list too many times on transport DeviceNetBT_Tcpip_{FF038570-7316-4F6A-8817-2B5B9C597E73}. The backup browser is stopping. And The browser was unable to retrieve a list of servers from the browser master \H_LPTP1 on the network DeviceNetBT_Tcpip_{FF038570-7316-4F6A-8817-2B5B9C597E73}. The data is the error code. H_LPTP1 is my laptop, usually on the network, but it isn't even switched on.

I have a user who is getting a blue screen that references the following stop codes;
0x000000C2
0x00000000
0x80000000
I looked around but it seemed like a lot of people's issues were resolved by replacing the memory. So here is what I did;
The laptop is an HP 6710b;
- Completely replaced the memory - BSoD still happens
- CHKDSK /F - BSoD still happens
- Latest patches removed - BSoD still happens
- take hard drive out and put into a different, identical 6710b - problem resolved.
| BIOS version is the same on both laptops

Every time I switch on my machine and try to connect to the internet, I get a dialogue box: Web page is unavailable while offline. To view this page, click connect. When I click connect, I can view the page and don't get the error message again until I switch off the machine. Why does this happen?

Man, my computer for the last two weeks have been crashing like an emo. I mean, when I play GTA: San Adreas, in 20 minutes, I get a BSOD with a stop error. When I put hardware acceleration to full, in a half an hour, I get a BSOD with a similar error. Believe me, I got three kinds of errors, and some were from different time. I believe the problem either came from the either the PSU, new 512 mb of ram, old 512, CPU, system board, or the graphic card. I'll try to post the error as best as I can. So, is there a solution to this?
Error Message: STOP 0x000000EA THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER (Q293078) This is one of them, but there another one with KMODE that I can't seem to remember. Also, sometimes, after it tries to recover from a serious error, the computer shuts down during the bootup before I can choose which XP version I can choose.
Also, I hate to say this, but I'm not using a legit windows copy sp1, but I have updated to sp2.

i had XP 2008 virus/spyware, which I think I managed to get rid of with Malwarebytes' Anti Malware and System Mechanic 7. Now I have a new problem. After receiving a recent download from microsoft, upon restarting, I get the blue screen of death with this message; STOP: C000021a (Fatal System Error) The Windows Logon Process system process terminated unexpectedly with a status of 0xc0000005 (0x00000000 0x00000000)
I can't get anywhere into Windows, I've done F2, F8, F12, everything I could think of without risking more damage. I've booted from the system mechanic CD with the Hard Drive recovery, and while it said it found and fixed a problem, it didn't fix this one.

I keep getting this error message when I boot. The entire message says, "windows explorer has encountered an error and needs to close." When I close the box, i lose my desktop, and can't run a bunch of programs, including the "run" option. I am able to run my browsers and get on the web. I did do a system restore, and it worked at first, but then on the next reboot, i got the error message again. Did another system restore, same thing.

When I turn my pc and windows loads up an error message appears saying that windows service pack 2 setup has encountered an error and has to close. However when I close the error message it keeps popping up every 20 seconds or so. When I went to microsofts website that told me that service pack 2 was installed on my pc. I have ran a full viral scan using the latest version of Panda and have also ran Reg-cure to see if the problem was in the registry but the error message still keeps popping up.

Windows pops up an error message box, with an "ok" box in it. The server app cannot be restarted until that silly box is clicked in. This is very irritating to me, because it only crashes when I go away from home, of course, when I need the watchdog most

On start-up, I get a series of paired error message that look like: First error message: Windows cannot find 'box,box,box... (where box is actually a graphic rectangle charater)Second error message: Could not load or run 'box,box,box...' in the registry. Make sure the file exists on your computer or remove the reference to it in the registry. This happens every time I start and I can click through to continue - but obviously something's off and I'd like to fix it. Though I'm not crazy about editing the registry, I'd do that to fix the problem, but I don't know what to search for.
