I share a wrieless internet connection with the main computer in our house. Mine is in my room. Everytime I restart my computer, or log off, whatever, and log back in, my internet, msn and stuff like that, do not work.

But when I click on Limewire, a message pops up and says a firewall restriction oor something like that. I have Mcafee firewall and so I tryed turning off the firewall.

Disappearing Stuff From The Drive

Nov 21, 2007

It's not the biggest problem in the world but all of the games provided by windows have just disappeared. Literally I logged on, went to play spider solitaire and it wasn't there! And I haven't done anything to it. If anyone knows of a way of getting them back that would be helpful. And also Windows deleted the flash player device, just randomly. And I've downloaded it again but it still doesn't work.

Spyware Taken Over Wallpaper And Other Stuff

Aug 20, 2005

I've got some kind of spy/adware that has replaced my wallpaper with a big sign saying I've got spyware and to click a link to remove it. When I right click the wallpaper and select properties I don't get any of the normal options. Also, in the tray by the time (in the bottom right of the screen) is a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark which periodically says I have spyware and launchs a pop-up. Furthermore, my internet speed has slowed right down. I've just run various spyware and adware programs and done a TrendMicro online check and deleted all the files it found, but the problem won't go away.

Bunch Of Stuff Doesn't Work

May 19, 2009

Alright, my in laws are having a problem with their computer and they said that last weekend Windows XP (SP3) asked to reactivate so they did without a hitch. I've never had a computer ask to do that unless I changed some hardware (which they did not) but maybe it's just never happened to me! So last week (a couple of days after the reactivation) they said weird things started happening. For instance if you go to the start menu to active windows, it comes up with a blank screen, the Windows search function comes up with a green screen and the little dog but that's it, IE doesn't load unless you type in an address and I couldn't get any web page to load that uses Active X. I ran the Kaspersky online test with no problems found and I couldn't run the antivirus from Eset because it requires Active X. Windows media player also doesn't load, it just brings up a blank screen. My father in law was able to defrag the computer though. I didn't have much time to really play with it so I'm not 100% sure what else isn't working but I know Firefox, Utorrent and VLC work fine. Has anyone had a similar problem or know where I should start to fix this?

Download Stuff - Administrator Privileges

Jun 21, 2005

All of a sudden, I don't seem to be an administrator here any more. I've been trying to download some stuff that requires that I be an administrator on this computer to install. It so happens that I'm the only one using it. Could some setting have been inadvertently changed? I'd appreciate anything you can say or do
to fix me up.

Weird Stuff - Boot Up System

Aug 18, 2007

I been using my PC for a few years now & it's been fine ever since, but now every time I start my PC every application transforms into a different font/style before going back to normal. My system is a XP Home SP2 & I'm using Firefox as my browser.
The last month I have been going through spyware/malware cleaners, used everyone one of them including Hijack This. The problem does not seem to be spyware.Now the problem all started when I clicked on some website when I was searching for an old obscure foreign band, at that moment my browser turned into a completely different style for a second.

HP Compaq - Uninstalling And Delegating Stuff

Jun 17, 2010

My XP home edition was on my PC at purchase time along with all the extra stuff that HP Compaq bundled up and added on. My rescue disks and my rescue partion on drive D all have their stuff and I really do hate it. Each time I have had to reinstall XP, I have to go through the hasle of uninstalling and deleating their stuff (it's all just a waste of space as far as I am concerned). If I were to purchase a Windows XP disk, can it be installed on this HP machine? Can I do that? So that I can be rid of the HP stuff that I don't like.

Mark C: Active Xp Move Boot Stuff To It

Feb 9, 2010

C: has windows on it an is marked "boot". A partition G: on that same physical drive is marked "system" and has the three files ntltr; boot.ini; and NTDETECT.COM. This is the only two partitions on that physicl drive. I have sucessfully moved the 3 files to a floppy A: drive and can boot from the a: drive. I also have them on the C: drive as well. I would like to boot from these 3 files on the C: drive so that the D: drive can be cleaned out. And all of windows stuff is on the c: drive where it belongs. I did disk management and can not set the partition C: "Boot" marked drive and the Partitioned G: "System" marked drive to active or anything. It does not show on the drop menu for the C: drive and it is greyed out on the drop down menu G: drive. I cant even change the drive letters of the G: drive.

Stuff Missing / Can't Even View A List Of Programs

Mar 26, 2008

There was recently a problem with my internet connection in my community as it was out for a day. When I was able to get back online, there are all sorts of problems with my McAfee (i.e. I all of a sudden have no virus protection and I can't reinstall it). Also, when I go to add/remove programs, there is nothing there. Other programs are still installed in my computer and the only one I seem to be having a problem with is the McAfee, but I can't even view a list of programs that are installed on my computer. What could be causing this problem? and How can I get my computer back to normal? Is this some sort of virus?I've tried restoring my computer to different dates, and it hasn't seemed to change anything. I'm running Windows XP operating system.
