View 6 Replies View RelatedSince moving to IE8 I have regularly been haunted by a large box appearing whenever I open it - even during a session if I leave it temporarily and reopen - telling me that a program has corrupted my default search engine which is live search and I am given the choice of enabling it or seeking out another search engine. I have done so in variations, such as disabling it, enabling it, redownloading it from the MS site, deleting all add-ons and then some. But whatever I do the same (double) box keeps appearing. Should I uninstall IE8 and then reinstall it as a last resort, or is there an easier way to get rid of the pest?

I know it isn't me and the program hasn't been used/opened for weeks.Googled around and found this is not uncommon but cannot find any real answers as to how to stop this. Maybe this has been brought up here before but didn't find what I was looking for.
View 14 Replies View RelatedHello, I have not had use of my main computer for about two weeks. I would preface this with the fact I am not proficient with computers as so many programs assume one is and I am 76 years old, a retired educator with advanced work, but at this point I am exasperated to say the least.
I had my computer on working when suddenly things went sorta crazy giving me the impression what I was attempting to get off my computer was an invasion of hard core porn, a virus, and a security program I had never heard of. My screen went black and could not be rebooted at all. I came to this spot, got a little advice, but it did not solve my problem. I found a program I thought would help, paid for the extras, but found it was not as indicated. It said it had help 24/7 (not) and expects one to know computers to use it. It says they have a "WE fix it for you" portion. How that works I have not figured out yet. The phone numbers given are not for service but are for some group this program is published thru I think. After a lot of By guess and By gosh I did manage to get to a home page that showed icons that gave me the interpretation of their pictures and names were as I suspected exactly. I finally got the program for security to desist. The screen disappeared to precipitate my efforts to use the PowerSuite 2010 (their help is by internet), CA Suite 2008 which I had paid to update to current time, My XP disc that wanted to doubt I owned and requested I put Windows 98 in to prove it and then it was on a merry-go-round asking me to insert the previous disc in whichever one it was. It has said XP was not right I am sure because the computer came with Windows XP Media which I had updated
I let a nephew used my computer, and I found a lot of porn stuff in the temporary Internet files. This is my office computer and lately, I had been notice strange noises, and like something is starting (?) This morning the PC cannot find my DVD drive, I used the "restored" function, and it founded.
Need some help to make sure I don't have "something" that it's not supposed to be there.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI bought a game today and wanted to install it. I put the cd in, and it says "The InstallShield Engine (ikernel.exe) could not be launched. No such interface supported." I've tried everything possible that google has to offer. I tried deleting the Engine file, but it won't delete. It would come right back. I tried looking for corrupt files in C:, nothing. I went to the Installshield consumers website. Nothing on there helped. I've tried all but downloading the latest version of ikernel, but the problem is I have to use the kernel program to install the latest kernel which isn't working. I hope that made sense. I saw I could use Windows Installer, but yeah I have no clue how to use that. I downloaded it, and I'm lost after that. It would be awesome if someone could give me walk through on using it or just tell me how to solve my original problem.

Lately I have had appplications freeze up temporarily for no apparent reason. This happens in WordPerfect, Word, and in my webmail system w/ Comcst and IE. Everything is un-responsive for as much as a minute with "beeps" when I try to get the window to respond by clicking in it or on the button in the system tray.
I wait it out and it usualy clears. But this is not an automatic backup in the word processing apps (which only takes a heartbeat to do). It's almost as if some thing on the machine is recording what I am doing... Once yesterday, I had to shut it down and re-boot, but that's been rare.
Now, I have lots of anti-spyware and other protective stuff: spybot S&D; Spyware Blaster; Webroot; Processguard; and AVI Antivirus. I've scanned and scanned, but found nothing but a few cookies most of which I get rid of.

View 6 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to remove and/or edit the words: Windows XP Home Edition from the left side of the Classic Start menu? I did it with Windows 98. If I remember correctly, I had to create a new BMP file of certain dimensions, and use Adobe Photoshop to create a layer of vertical text, give the new file the same name as the old one, change the extension for the old file, and put the new one in the same location. Is the method for the Classic Start menu in Windows XP the same.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm not exactly sure what is causing this issue so I don't exactly know where to put it. If one of the staff here has a better suggestion and can move it there I would be greatly appreciative. Now on to my problem.I have a computer here that randomly seems to lock up. What I mean by that is, you can be typing an e-mail and the words stop displaying, a few seconds later the screen will flash and your text will start filling in (it isn't suddenly there, you can actually watch it fill in the letters). Nothing moves on the screen at all until the flash.
The machine itself is a fairly robust machine (Dell Precision WorkStation T3400 with E7300, 2.66, 3MB Wolfdale Processor, 2 GB of RAM, and a NVIDIA Quadro NVS290 graphics card

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'd like to find a way to block Silverlight completely at the source- sort of like using the hosts file to block web pages.
