I'd like to know how to erase my search history (the one that comes up when I search at Google or Ebay). I was shopping for a special present and don't want the person who's getting it to know.
View 8 RepliesMy computer recently got infested with spyware. I managed to get rid of most of it with adaware and spybot but one remains. Spybot recognised it as 'command service' but will not delete it due to it being used by memory. All this thing does is slow down my computer when connected to the internet by opening heaps of Norton Anti virus email scans. How on earth do I get rid of this?

The darn run history won't delete.I have tried 4 different programs which delete everything else. Is windows xp somehow holding on to it?

View 7 Replies View RelatedFor some time now I have been unable to use the windows xp search function. It starts out all right but always crashes before it completes anything. Sometimes it actually manages to find some files before it crashes.I cannot see any pattern as to a specific location causing it to crash. Originally I thought it was doing it cuz I had WordPerfect open whenever I started the search, but recent attempts to run a search with NO programs open give me the same crashes.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy Search Companion now calls itself Search Results and does not offer to find Pictures, music, or video, Documents, etc. Also the animated assistant is not available nor is the change preferences option.

View 6 Replies View Relatedis there a way in Windows XP to turned off searching in *.zip during the Search command? I search multiple network drives serveral times a day for files and do not need to search in the *.zip files. By searching the *.zip files the time is greatly increased. When I had Windows 2000 the search would take about 1 minute (did not search *.zip files) and now in Windows XP the search takes over 12 and half minutes (1079 *.zip files)
I did a test by making all the *.zip hidden and did the search again - averaged about 59 seconds. Unforunately, I have to leave the *.zip files as not hidden.
Any ideas?
