Need help with windows 2000

2k is better then 98.  You probably have trojans or something in the 98. 

I'm still pondering this little gem...

Which part? The '2k is better than 98' part or the trojans part?

Personally, I like Windows 2K better because it can download drivers automatically.

The latter...the OP stated they were 2 different machines which makes this statement illogical.

Perhaps Squall made a statement on his opinions and then made another statement related to finding the problem...

I'm not sure that emoticon has been invented yet...

Did you read the second part?  Security probably isnt as good compared to 2k.  ITs possible to get them on any os an possible mite be just a small malware problem.

Sorry I'v not been on,I'v been busy.Well I should have added that this Is a "Fresh" Install of windows 2k.i dont remember what it said on the box,but like i said ,it said something like,"you have 102 errors in your registry,go to www.something,and download Xp registry fixer"something like that". squall_01:There is nothing worng with my windows 98 pc.  Patio: What is illogical about my statement? i have one pc that is running windows 98SE and my other pc is running 98 on one hard drive But also "a fresh install of windows 2000pro,with SP4. anyway can anybody tell me what All services that can safely be turned off? oh i turned off the messenger service.
Thanks
Oh And Where's Cbmatt at ? lol ,i haven't saw him on lately.

It was squall's statement that was illogical...
Have the messages gone away since turning off Messenger ? ?
