kazaa buggered my PC

[PetrolTed]

In a stupid moment of stupidity I attempted to download kazaa. All it seemed to do was install some stupid toolbar into IE.

I used Adaware to get rid of it but now I get windows in Internet Explorer that I can't close. Can anyone shed any light on this?

[PetrolTed]

No problem. Sorted it now with Spybot.

Can't believe I was so stupid

[PetrolTed]

Well, thought I had. Removed some stuff and it seemed to fix it but not any more. Windows Update also seems kerf******

[PetrolTed]

Nope, running W2000 unfortunately.

No need for Kazaa anyway now. I solved my needs elsewhere.

Symptoms are

- open a new browser window and I can't close it
- windows update program doesn't scan for updates
- Symantec anti virus buggered

[PetrolTed]

Nearly sorted. SP4 re-enabled windows update and unregistering/deleting iexplorr23.dll and iexplorr24.dll got rid of a couple of parasites.

Just need to find a disc for Symantec now as that came preinstalled.

[PetrolTed]

All is working again now

That'll teach me!
