windows explorer multiple windows issue

<< < (2/2)

rovingcowboy:
downloaded and tried spyware terminator free.

it found 1 email worm hidden in a desktop ini file.
1 pc remote controller hidden some place?
9 minor spyware's like cookies and printer controllers.

why it found all those and the other programs i have installed or have tried did not find them i don't know.  :confused:  unless it was because their database was newer then the programs i have on the system or have tried. :undecided:

but still the issue with explorer still shows up.  :shocked:

Shane:
Malwarebytes is free as well. They just ask if you want to buy their pro version. Just run it in free mode.

Every detection out there is different. Thats why it is good to run a few different ones.

Also it is odd that combofix is crashing. Did you try running it in safe mode and see if it still crashes?

rovingcowboy:
no i didn't get combo fix to work.
i got another program wise utilitys  ran it there were tons of fix's it found in places the others did not so i ran its cleaning programs and still the issue shows up. 

thinking really hard about just doing a reinstall of the windows folder again from the install cd.  that might be awhile though as i'm not wanting to spend the 20 hours doing downloads of all the updates since 2002 for xp.  i'm just not liking that update stuff too much anymore. :cry:

Shane:
A reinstall is sometimes the best option.

After word make sure to install all the service packs first. Then after that the updates shouldnt be to bad :wink:
