Yeah, thats a nasty one. Do it quick.
I had that problem earlier in the year, wouldnt let me access C drive (had to go into explorer, [delete your recycle bin in C:\ base]) or any antivirus stuff. I ended up reformatting.

Well, I am Firefoxed.
Not that it helps, I'm still kazood up the wazoo and can't seem to update or install any new anti-virus stuff or Google straight to a page without running into endless useless search engine pages.
In any event, this is beyond what I'm prepared to deal with. This machine is a crazy conglomeration of my woman's French programs and my English ones, as well as having been subjected to my kids various live chat programs and online games, so I think it's time for The Big Flush. I was going to do it anyway, but this situation just seems to beg for it.
Aside from whether I should re-install XP or go for the newer W7, since I'm going to backup my stuff on an external HD, re-install some form of Win and then retrive my stuff, what is the ultimate Must have list of stuff I should install prior to retrieving my old stuff off the external HD (and inspecting it with)?
I'm guessing:
AVG 9.0 Free
Superantispyware
Spybot
Any other programs I should have or steps I should take?
Thanks for the help.![]()

I would definitely move to Win7.
Just avoid backing up executables or configuration files. If you stick to things like documents, photos, ect, you're probably safer. Still- scanning them can't hurt.![]()
