PLEASE Help Me!  
« on: May 16, 2004, 12:35:01 PM »
 :o
Ok, I'll start at the beg./ (well, condensed anyway!)
I've downloaded the updates, I run Norton on Windows XP/ I ALSO have spyboy and adaware.  Plus run a firewall.  
The problem is:
Windows explorer keeps popping up every 30 seconds or so.  EVERY time I put  an address in the search - it comes up search evertying.  It is so gosh@#$  frustrating!
"Windows explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for t he Inconvenience!"

I downloaded the missing )or corrupt, dll.  And then saw the list!!   OMIGosh.  
OK  the error says
error signature explorer.exe.  APP ver 6.02600.0 Modname: crtdll.dll   Mod Ver 4.0.1183.1

file to be included:
C:\Docum^1Owner\Locals^1\temp\wer17E.dir00.appcompat.txt  I have been trying everything suggested and I am about four hot dogs shy of a bbq right now.  
I would appreciate any feedback.

      thegirlsrock99....It almost sounds like it may be a trojan as opposed to a virus.  Is Your Norton current as of today and your Ad-Aware V.6 build 181( latest one)

      You might also try running trojan remover
      http://www.simplysup.com/tremover/download.html

      The other thing is .......do you have a firewall ? If not try Zone Labs ( free version )
      http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/company/products/znalm/freeDownload.jsp?lid=zadb_zadown

      Have a look at your task manager ....Ctrl/Alt/Del and have a look at whats running ......if anything looks odd do a search for it in google and see what it says.
      Depending on what programs you have running you could expect to see 20 to 30 running items .

      hope this helps

        Thanks for all your help.  I really hated to - but, I finally lost my files and had to refomat.  The funny thing was - when I read the "details" of the error report, on the right hand side half way down about a thousand miles down the sidebar - it said "appy new year" amongst other things!  It frustrates me to no end that some people have nothing better to do than destroy little ol 'me's dinky little home computer.  
        But still. I thank each of you for taking the time to answer my questions.
