Hey sharkmak,

Enable everything in MSCONFIG (if you have disabled anything). Go to Start > Run > msconfig > click Startup Tab > everythig should have a checkmark to the left of it.

Download HijackThis (link below). Make sure you install HijackThis to a permanent folder such as C:\HJT as it creates backups of what we will fix. Run the program, press Scan, press Save log. Notepad will open, copy and paste the entire log into your post. Do not fix anything yet, most of what's in the log is needed!

Tom

You are right there is no Msconfig in Windows 2000. I guess I should mention that when I tell people how to use HijackThis.

A virus, trojan horse, spyware or some other rogue program has probably been installed on your computer. HijackThis is a program that allows detection and removal of such infections. If you post a log, maybe we can see what's going on under the hood.
