Are you logged on as Admin or Owner or something else?

Crono · « **Reply #2 on:** June 24, 2005, 05:23:58 PM »

im loged on as owner computer administrator.

Fed · « **Reply #3 on:** June 24, 2005, 05:49:39 PM »

Just to be sure, when you hit Ctrl+Alt+Del, the screen you see says something like

Owner is logged on as BlahBlahBlah/Owner

and in Start>Settings>Control Panel>Users&Passwords
Owner is in the Admin group?

Crono · « **Reply #4 on:** June 24, 2005, 06:05:57 PM »

im 100% sure im the owner

btw i did a system recovery like a week ago

Crono..... Why was it necessary to do a system restore .......were you trying to get rid of a virus or trojan ?

Which anti virus software do you have installed and is it up to date ?

Let us know

Fed · « **Reply #10 on:** June 24, 2005, 07:21:18 PM »

Can you restart in safe mode with networking then try and access the free scan site above?

Crono · « **Reply #11 on:** June 24, 2005, 07:25:00 PM »

how do you put the comp on safe mode

Fed · « **Reply #12 on:** June 24, 2005, 07:26:20 PM »

As it boots, tap the F8 key.

Fed · « **Reply #13 on:** June 24, 2005, 07:38:23 PM »

BTW, the reason I asked you to do the online scan is because that site is updated many times a day with new virus signatures.

i did it beacuse i downloded zone alarm pro on my comp from downloads .com then when it restarted after i downloded it on my comp my screen just said would you like to start zone alarm and anything i did after that the screen was just blank exept for my wallpaper if i knew how to use safe mode i might have been able to uninstall zone alarm thats how it started.

dl65 · « **Reply #16 on:** June 24, 2005, 08:04:09 PM »

Crono..... So when you removed Z/A how did you remove it ? Did you use Add/Remove programs in the control Panel or did you attempt to delete it from somewhere else ?

let us know

dl65

Crono · « **Reply #17 on:** June 24, 2005, 08:06:43 PM »

Fed · « **Reply #35 on:** June 24, 2005, 08:56:00 PM »

From what I've seen, system restore can do more harm than good, the one & only time I ever used it, it removed all my drivers. LOL

Crono · « **Reply #36 on:** June 24, 2005, 08:59:19 PM »

if i could find my computer staring cd i could start my comp all over.

Fed · « **Reply #42 on:** June 24, 2005, 09:29:07 PM »

Maybe starting at the top should be installing anti-virus, anti-spyware and a firewall?

Edit: As above on the fresh XP you install.

Crono · « **Reply #43 on:** June 24, 2005, 09:31:11 PM »

i cant find that on my remove/ add programs how do i use that other way with that link

doing this all on safe mode

what i dont have a fresh xp

Fed · « **Reply #44 on:** June 24, 2005, 09:34:39 PM »

Crono, the link above is not a removal program, it's directions for manual removal.

At this point you really have to question if it's worth trying to remove all this stuff considering the previous problems with restore and ZA etc.

Maybe a fresh install of xp as you said earlier is the way to go.

dl65 · « **Reply #45 on:** June 24, 2005, 09:35:46 PM »
